THE PEPPER MILL - Pepper Teehankee - The Philippine Star
#Policebullettrain

The main character of the film Bullet Train portrayed by Brad Pitt is named Ladybug.  In the film, he wears an Origins Bullet 1, the prescription glasses frame from the brand Police. The frame is a distinct style that was in the Police collections of the 1990s. This same frame used by Brad in the movie is now available in limited quantities at Ideal Vision and The SM Store nationwide.

A special Police premiere was held in partnership with Columbia Pictures Philippines at the SM Aura Director’s Club a week before its regular run.

President of Thinline Advertising Frank Briones put together this special screening. He said, “The movie is fun and exhilarating. Various activities were put in place to make sure that this collaboration would create an impact in promoting this partnership. Before this culmination, several celebrities were doing a choreographed TikTok to the tune of Staying Alive, a popular dance craze from the ’70s, which incidentally is also the movie’s official soundtrack in Japanese lyrics.”
