Description: "The Coca-Cola Kid" is a 1985 Australian romantic comedy film directed by Dusan Makavejev and starring Eric Roberts, Greta Scacchi, and Bill Kerr. The film tells the story of Becker, a Coca-Cola executive from the United States, who is sent to Australia to boost sales. While there, he clashes with an eccentric marketing consultant, T. George McDowell (played by Bill Kerr), who prefers to use traditional Australian marketing tactics rather than American ones. The film explores themes of cultural clash, corporate culture, and the influence of multinational corporations on local communities. It's a satire that pokes fun at the clash between American corporate values and Australian culture. "The Coca-Cola Kid" received mixed reviews upon its release, but it gained a cult following over the years for its quirky humor and social commentary. The soundtrack, featuring Australian rock band Mental As Anything, also received praise.
