A neat little 5-page-long interview with voice actor Maurice LaMarche. It made me laugh well at a rtime when I reely need laughter. I think I am going to start saying �What is it you want? In your depths of your ignorance, what is it you want?� as well.

Hah! He actually said "crumb crisp coating" in the interview too! I've known the original Wellesian outtake for many a year now - it was required listening for those of us looking into voice acting and direction.

For those of you scratching your heads, Orson Welles once recorded a voice over for a frozen peas commercial - and refuses to take advice from the director. The outtake escalates until Orson loses it and storms out.

Maurice LaMarche parodied this not once, but twice - as Orson Welles in "The Critic" where he broke up when reading the dialogue about "green pea-ness", and then as the Brain where they famously replaced Orson's insult "I'll go down on you" with "I'll make cheese for you". The latter is linked below - I recommend listening to the Welles original first. [Smile]

I had the "pea-ness" as my answering machine message for many months long ago.

I've always wanted to be a voice actor,too. This just makes my want to do it more. This MP3 is too awesome.
