Seems ol' Orson Welles was a victim of Marlon Brando Syndrome long before MBS was ever officially diagnosed. Here we have Mr. Welles fatly and drunkenly warbling through a commercial for California champagne, apparently called Pwah Mwahseeyaaair. (So sad. I found him sort of hot at the beginning of Citizen Kane.)
J.J. IM'ed me about these outtakes last night. Following is a brief recap of our conversation.
JJ (on IM): I can't stop laughing
Alanna's cell phone rings
Alanna: Hello?
JJ: HAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHH!
Alanna: Wow, you weren't kidding.

I totally remember that Orson Wells commercial. Does that make me old?
No, that makes you *lucky*! I wish I had been around to see this when it first came out.
Checking out your blog... you have some beautiful photos!
That was tied for the funniest thing I've seen all morning. (But it won for 'most depressing.')

"And like the best French--[pause,breath]--Champagne it's vintage dated"
Hahaha
Off topic, but if you haven't seen D.O.G. O.B.G.Y.N. from MTV2's Wonder Showzen, enjoy:

That clip misses the beginning of the first take.
This one has it, and it's even better
