I've been reading that Grace Kelly, Marlene Dietrich, and Marilyn Monroe were digitally included in the Charlize Theron J'Adore Dior "movie" (is this what we're calling commercials nowadays?) that premiered this fall, but that Lola Lola doesn't look like a CGI Dietrich to me. Rather, she's a beautiful impersonator, no? If this doppelganger has any acting skills, maybe she can play Dietrich now that Gwyneth Paltrow thankfully no longer has the biopic listed on her IMDB page.

1997 Mercedez-Benz Commercial
Posted by

I have read some biting criticism about the 1997 Mercedes-Benz commercial that interpolated Marlene Dietrich's "Falling In Love Again" in the style of the Natalie and Nat King Cole duet "Unforgettable," but the obvious reasons for the song's use were its theme of desirability, its nostalgic appeal, and the Teutonic elegance that the Dietrich and Mercedes-Benz brands exude. The formula worked because in 2005 Car and Driver magazine rated the commercial the third best car commercial of all time.
This version of the commercial clocks in at just over a minute:
This version is the standard 30 seconds and apparently appears at the beginning of The Lost World: Jurassic Park VHS tapes:
