      True! It's all in the delivery...some are born to it. Not me though : ( I can say something funny...no laughs...my husband or someone else in the room who found it funny will repeat it with a different influx and the room roars. I'm like...wait what?

    • @emiliospowerballer1441
      @emiliospowerballer1441 3 роки тому +5

      @@LifesPeachy321 very true. john apparently naturally has the voice and the face to say anything and make it sound funny, as his speaking rhythm is slow. its the combination of all of that which makes him funny, even though he isnt a funny guy. hes not a man who tells jokes as per say like chris rock, but his expression gives that impression.

    Every time I've seen John Malkovich in a film he is either yelling or swearing or usually both. But, when he is doing and interview, he is so quiet and calm that it makes you question his acting abilities.
    Truly amazing actor.

    Malkovich is so deadpan, but utterly hilarious. And one of the best actors of our time. For me, he stole the show in Expendables. Actually, he pretty much steals the show in any movie he is in. He has portraying some one who is barely keeping sane down to a T.

    • @haveanicetime
      @haveanicetime 8 років тому

      ***** Wow! This is great :D...I am Leo too :D and I have a Cancer friend....My element is fire but your element is water, I am not compatible with cancer as a zodiac because we are different in our ways in life but we are compatible in the type of the character (both of us are leaders) and our representation system is (feeler)...So, you will find it a good relationship as friends, but for marriage, it is not recommended. Leo should marry Sagittarius or Arius, or Gemini but they should have the same character and representation system for marriage success. Cancer may marriage Pisces or Taurus or Scorpio.

    Everyone chooses Morgan Freeman or Samuel L Jackson for story narrations....John Malkovich and Micheal Caine would be interesting additions to tht mix
