Need a refresher on the birds and the bees? Or maybe just the bees? In these wonderful, fantastical short films by Isabella Rossellini for Burt’s Bees, which we spotted over at Booooooom, Rossellini and her squadron of bee-friends teach us how bees mate, spread pollen, and communicate (“we wag our ass and we talk to one another”). Turns out both Aristotle and Shakespeare were “so wrong” about the lives of our little buzzy friends, but never fear, Lady Rossellini will set them straight. In the end, Burt has some pretty good advice on how to make sure bees keep on buzzing: support organic farms, plant wild flowers, and buy local honey. We think we can handle that.
