Old Ford Mondeo Advert?
There was an advert for the Ford Mondeo (I think) from the early or mid nineties which featured a mani in a black coat wandering nostalgically around a European city, almost certainly Venice. It is all moodily shot - an ancient statue is being pulled from a canal at one point. The ad finishes with him climbing in to the car with an expression of confident 'no looking back' as he drives away. Can anyone tell me what the music was?

It's quite remarkable - the remit was to make the car look desirable, so much that matey leaves this wonderful artitectural masterpiece of a city. Underneath there's the hints to the film - the wedding barge similar to the funeral barge, the statue looking like the dead body pulled from the canal, and right at the end the little girl in the red coat waving goodbye, like the dead daughter. A genuinely creepy advert if you know the film. Most excellent!
