AceShowbiz - Tons of British actors take part in British invasion-themed short films for Vanity Fair. Directed by Jason Bell, the first episode is called "Preparing for War", while the second part sees the Brits "Coming to America" and infiltrating Hollywood. The third part, called "Victory is Assured", features highlight which sees Keira Knightley re-enacting the orgasm scene from "When Harry Met Sally".
Wearing a bejeweled dress and applying red lipstick, the "Atonement" star carries out the scene previously done by Meg Ryan. Judi Dench then delivers the punch line, "I'll have what she's having."
Knightley's co-star in "Atonement" and "The Imitation Game", Benedict Cumberbatch, also takes part in the video. He appears in the first few seconds, ditching his white shirt while making a teasing facial expression. Other stars in the video include "The Avengers" baddie Tom Hiddleston, portraying Clyde Barrow and taking Felicity Jones for a drive.
