...most of the other actors, a motley crew culled from the director's pet sources -- kitsch movies of the '50s, tabloid headlines of the '70s and '80s -- who could have met nowhere in the world but on a John Waters set. Surfside heartthrob Troy Donahue. Media minx Joey Heatherton. Ever fashionable Polly Bergen. Andy Warhol icon Joe Dallesandro. Punk pioneer Iggy Pop. Legendary bad actress Susan Tyrrell.

In the past, Coke has recruited the Pointer Sisters and Whitney Houston. All of which raises a profound question: Which brand would Elvis have chosen...
...later, Hollywood snatched it up and turned it into the screen classic Here Comes Mr. Jordan. Decades later, Hollywood dug it up yet again, stuck yet another title ("Heaven Can Wait") on the marquee and milked one more hilarious blockbuster out of essentially the same script, this time starring heartthrob Warren Beatty and the venerable James Mason...
