one month passes...

Orson Welles did Carlsberg, didn't he?

Joe E. Loss, Sarge in hongkong phewy = Sgt Ritzig in Phil Silvers Show

but best of all Keye Luke, Zoltar in gforce/battle of the planets = No. 1 Son in Charlie Chan.

Welles did the Birds Eye adverts (peas and burgers). The rehearsal tape is the cinematic equivalent of the Troggs Tapes and is unbelievable to listen to.

"I would NOT direct ANY living actor in Shakespeare like this! We WERE onto the peas! A big can of peas!! This is a pile of SHIT, you KNOW that??"

I love that recording, Marcello. The best bit is when they are telling him where to put the emphasis, and he indignantly disagrees.
