Gandhi in Media

Last week I saw two mention of Gandhi one really nice and another not so nice

first the not so nice piece - there was a rerun of Sienfield and in one of the episodes The Old Man
in which Jerry, George and Elaine go out and volunteer with old people and Elaine meets Mrs.Oliver this old lady with Goiter and she talks about her affair with Gandhi

The Old Man - Script

Mrs. O: That's when I began my affair with Mohandas.
Elaine: What?
Mrs. O: Mohandas.
Elaine: Ghandhi?
Mrs. O: Oh, the *passion*. The *forbidden pleasure*--
Elaine: You had an affair with Ghandhi?
Mrs. O: He used to dip his bald head in oil and rub it all over my body.
Here, look... [shows Elaine a picture of the two together]
Elaine: Oh, my God... The Mohatma?

Somehow I found it was not funny at all

The better part
Italian telecom ad - amazing portrayal of Gandhi and an excellent usage of clips and nice message in a commercial. I actually feel happy though he has been used in a commercial for business reasons.
You can view the clip in the link below
