Revolving Door (1988) ***

Here's the ultimate proof of just how powerful and effective this political ad is: it's also known as the "Willie Horton ad", even though it never mentions Willie Horton at all (he became a household name thanks to a different, earlier political ad). But nobody remembers that earlier ad, and everybody remembers that revolving door.
