Gary Oldman answers fans questions during Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy promotion in 2011, on Harry Potter, David Bowie, accents... Gary Oldman Web : / garyoldmanweb
but she didn't do that in order to insult him, seems like she's not an english native speaker and her english is not that good, and all of these are why this was so sweet ❤
+Amanda Well he says he has a good ear and "good pitch" but didn't specify perfect pitch. of course he always say he has "facility" with music and accents. Fascinating! I learn something new every day. Thanks. :)
+AAparallel I am a trained vocalist with a good ear; as Gary is. I can physically hear perfect pitch. I can also do impressions the same way that Gary can. So i am aware that he has perfect pitch, or as he put it in the video "good pitch" and a good ear just by listening to him. and Also in the video he says he has the facility for music and good pitch and a good ear. and he would know better than anybody :)
Mr. Oldman, Endearing piece. I love that you and Mr. Bowie were such friends. My heartfelt condolences. His fans have been counting the months...I can`t fathom how deep the sorrow; for those who actually knew him.
On the question about why Brits can do great American accents, but Americans aren’t very good at British accents, I have a theory. We Americans grew up watching American television. Brits also grew up watching American television. They were exposed to American TV and watched many of the same shows that we did. If they quoted the actors, they probably did so in an American accent, and did so since childhood.
He's been my crush since the early 90s..to see kids coming up knowing him is kinda tearjerkin..hope he likes old ladies now..( like I ever had a chance)
I think another answer to Omekongo's question is that many British actors get their start in theater, and in theater, teaching dialects and accents is part of the training. Not the case in as many American actors. Perhaps that's why us Yankees can't pull off a Cockney as well as a Brit can pull off a New Yorker. Or it's just cause Winona Ryder and Keanu Reaves are better at playing themselves than being given more diverse parts.
Imagine being Gary Oldman and frightened of being out of work Yeah Gary if things don't pick up soon you'll be back unloading trucks, I'll pray for you 😂
ahh movies like that reduces the potential in people a waste of money and time. i seen a clip in his early years of acting forcing a heavy smooch on 2 guys at the same time with harmony . i’m just curious was it always for the money or true love with gay roles lol.
