Do any people really talk and act like Vincent Price, or perhaps Barnabas Collins on the original Dark Shadows (Jonathan Frid)?
Some people really can talk like this—there have been a few on NPR and PBS and some radio/T.V. commercial announcers..
I can talk like this—I have a good narrator voice and good with reading stories and poems and Dr. Seuss to children. But it’s not fully my natural way of speaking.. I have as my natural voice a good Mid-Atlantic general English radio voice but to sound really polished and posh takes some effort. Its kind of like acting for me. Its certainly not my day-to-day life.
But who really talks like Barnabas Collins, Vincent Price, or Boris Karloff? It takes an actual demeanor, wardrobe, and lifestyle, lest these orators are merely acting. Do they really talk and live this way? Is anyone we might meet in Public like Barnabas on the original Dark Shadows, or would they seem extremely odd?
