Look Who's Talking

Every Saturday night at our house is 'pizza and a movie' night. Last week, Monica made us each our own personal pizzas with buffalo mozzarella and tomato sauce. Last minute, the oven broke! Monica made the pizza in the microwave, and the crust came out surprisingly crispy!

Well, the movie we watched was Harry Potter, I forget which one... Probably because it was dubbed!

Monica tells me most of the movies in the theaters are dubbed, and that certain famous actors have their own specific Italian voice actors. One voice over actor in particular, Ferruccio Amendola, is known for dubbing the voices of Al Pacino, Sylvester Stallone, Dustin Hoffman, Robert De Niro, Christopher Lloyd, and Bill Cosby. Monica says some Italians can tell which actor is being portrayed just by listening to the voice. He had a specific voice for each actor!
