What's the quickest way to start playing a movie after attaching power?

I want my Raspberry Pi to start looping a predefined .mp4 movie (/home/oliver/awesome.mp4) as soon as possible after attaching power to the device.

This has to happen without any user interaction and I would prefer it if no OSD is distracting the playback. I want to use this next to a POS for entertainment purposes.
