I don't recall for certain which movie it is, but we have a video that has at the beginning an add for Schweppes. Ginger Ale, I think. John Cleese is the spokesman, and he goes on and on in this long schpiel about how Schweppes is so good that they don't have to advertise. Meanwhile, however, everywhere you look, the Schweppes logo keeps popping up. When he sits down, it's on the bottoms of his shoes. It's emblazoned across his back when he turns around at the end. I don't remember all the places it turns up.

Does anyone else remember this commercial?
