In a goofy, French subtitled French commercial for Schweppes, Uma Thurman, dressed in some kind of futuristic flapper garb, coos seductively from a couch to an interviewer who thinks she wants to have sex with him. Chock this up to yet another one of those Japander-style ads where Hollywood stars go over seas to make extra money.

Thurman is beginning to sound a lot like Kathleen Turner and that’s not a good thing.
