Jonathan Gili
In 1995, Jonathan Gili made a documentary for the BBC’s Timewatch strand about Pocahontas, the Native American ‘princess’ (more accurately a chief’s daughter). That year, Disney’s animated version of the character was everywhere, including on fast food packaging. Whether Gili purchased a Burger King kid’s meal for himself is unclear, but he got hold of one of the tie-in bags and, rather than throwing it away (as most would have done), he filed it carefully with the production documents for his own film, pressed like a dried flower.
