The Finnish Princess


Why did the Princess voice sound so deep and husky? LOL It was so funny...sounded more masculine than feminine.

Probably just a gimmick, added for humorous value.

I'm more perturbed by the notion of Finnish royalty as such; Finland has been a republic since the day it gained independence...

kind of like what goodman said, 'having sex on a bed of nails and a voice like a tuba' i personally liked dinner with the cornish hens, and of course the end when he kick lord graves right in the arse

reply

it was just a joke, the irony of it, a beautiful woman with "a voice like a tuba"

I'm just wondering how they did it, was Joely Richardson actually speaking then (probably not), or did they just use a voiceover with a different person. If Joely could actually speak in that voice, i give her a lot of credit. Anyone know if it was her or a voiceover?

It sounded like they slowed down the recordings of her voice just a little, but it´s just a guess.

It´s called the american dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.

It was probably her own voice. She is an actress after all.

reply

It was a gimmick, as you notice that you don't hear her speak until her and Ralph are dancing. Right up until that point I was thinking of how pretty she was.

As a sovereign nation, thay haven´t ever had a king. They were ruled by Sweden and then Russia up until 1808 or something, and then ofcourse they were ruled by the monarchs of those nations, but that´s irrelevant.
I submited it to the goofs section earlier, see if they´ll approve it...

They probably did it to avoid offending any of the real Royal families of Europe.

O'Neill, two 'l's!

Hmm... That makes sense. Crap, my first submitted goof wasn´t one...

So, what do you think this film was - a documentary?

reply

Damn, blast from the past! Yes I was a young humorless dummy when I wrote that :)

"*beep* Mickey Mouse. *beep* him in the *beep* with a big rubber *beep*!"

reply

Do grow a brain! It is a FICTIONAL movie -- a comedy! Notice that the sitting ruler of England in the REAL world at the time of this movie was a woman, yet in the movie there is clearly a man ruling... Sometimes people are just so dense.
