Lisa (Apple Computer)

image from the commercial for Apple's new Macintosh commercial that aired during the Super Bowl on Jan. 22, 1984. In the center of the image is a blond-haired woman wearing red shorts and a white tank top that has an artistic illustration of the Macintosh computer on it. She has a determined look on her face as she runs down an aisle in a dark, dystopian, '1984'-like world, with helmeted stormtroopers behind her in the distance in pursuit. The woman is clutching a hammer in both hands as she runs, preparing to throw it at a giant screen (not seen here) on which Big Brother is giving a propaganda speech.

Remember the ‘1984’-Inspired Commercial That Helped Launch Apple’s Macintosh?

Directed by Ridley Scott, the commercial aired just once, but made quite an impact and remains memorable.
