n the second of four commercials encouraging cinema-goers to switch off their phones, we see a frustrated Mena Suvari desperately trying to cling onto some shreds of the true story of Joan of Arc.

As filming is in progress and Mena is about to be burned at the stake, the comedic Orange film commission boys appear with a fire extinguisher. Having left the script unread, they dismiss the real story as far too depressing and insist that the guise of a cheerleader would be more suited to a 'hot teenage girl in France'. Once again, they manage to screw up a good movie, this time by sending scantily clad girls with pom-poms to the rescue after receiving her SOS text message. Our female lead is particularly unimpressed.

Movie fans will be treated to two more of the ads in the next six months, which never fail to provide pre-film giggles. The stars of the next two are being kept carefully under wraps...

This time backgrounds were created and titles added by Aleks Ugarow in Smoke.
