Alec Baldwin
I watched this documentary on the solar system when I was high. Check out the purple prose he uses to describe Venus: “Out of the darkness, a friendly face. The goddess of love. Venus. The morning star… the evening star. She can welcome the new day in the east, say good night in the west. A sister to our planet… Venus is one deadly goddess.”
The whole documentary is like this. When you get too close to the sun: “Maybe we shouldn’t be out here. Maybe we should turn back. But there is something about the sun, something hypnotic, like the Medusa… luring us onwards. On. Like a moth to a flame.” He gently caresses the words with his deep, breathy voice, like caressing a lover. It’s the hammiest performance I’ve ever heard, which I think is exactly what they were going for. WIN.
