There?s gorilla sitting at one classroom desk, and a prancing tough guy called the Queen (Freddie Mercury with Toshiro Mifune?s menace), and a cigarette-puffing robot in a pink shirt. The entire group sends up fumes like an Iraqi oil factory, and when Kamiyama presses them to renounce smoking, they protest: "Our lips would be lonely? And our fingers too." You?ll find no girls in Cromartie, but plenty of aliens. In a way, the movie is a throwback...

Meanwhile, on a wide expanse of lawn studded with giant gremlin-like sculptures, a woman wearing pink angel wings leapt at oversized bubbles being blown by a pair of shirtless young men.

"the CopperTop battery," now owned by Procter & Gamble, has won five Effie Awards since 1992 for most effective ad campaign.
