Performance in Wham's Last Christmas videoclip?

[edit]

Hi,

Shouldn't Andie MacDowells performance in the world famous videoclip of Wham, Last Christmas, be mentioned? I'am not sure, but I believe Andie features in this clip. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.249.229.111 (talk) 14:42, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Greystoke and Andie Macdowell's Southern Accent...

[edit]

As the article mentions, Andie Macdowell portrayed Jane in the movie *Greystoke*. Notoriously, her spoken dialogue was excised, supposedly because her southern accent was not appropriate for Jane. (Glenn Close was the spoken-word Jane.) This incident shows the carelessness and ignorance of the filmmakers. Not only does Macdowell have a lovely speaking voice, but the actual Jane from Edgar Rice Burrough's Tarzan series was an American Southerner--specifically, from Maryland. Burroughs described her as a "Baltimore belle." Macdowell's accent would have been perfectly appropriate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Younggoldchip (talkcontribs) 14:39, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Who cares if someone spoke the part for her. She can't act worth a (*&^%^&#@@ anyway. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.119.151.233 (talk) 02:44, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A lot of viewers, critics and nominating committees would disagree with you. She's received many nominations for major acting awards (including Golden Globes and Oscars), and has won more than a few. Younggoldchip (talk) 15:24, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Younggoldchip
I would have to agree with your conclusions. Stevenmitchell (talk) 05:42, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
