Fans of Ollie Reed's posthumous exit from Gladiator - digitally knocked together from outtakes after the hellraising thesp inconveniently popped his caligulae during filming of the Roman epic - will doubtless enjoy this punt for One Laptop Per Child, featuring a seamless performance from John Lennon:
Well, we know it's all for a good cause, but we don't think this effort will be giving Industrial Light & Magic too many sleepless nights.
