Randy Stein Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) While looking through my streaming last night for a movie I caught a snippet of a 2006 movie called Relative Strangers. The Actress Kathy Bates was pretending to play an anglo. Horrible movie by the way https://youtu.be/sguNMcMJQv8 Edited August 5 by Randy Stein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her fingertips aren’t anywhere near the keys and her fingers aren’t moving. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Barnert Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Well, let’s just say that her hands are through the straps, but her palms are flat against the keys and her fingertips extend beyond the edges of the ends. She is pumping the bellows freely, which suggests that someone has opened up a vent hole somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIMON GABRIELOW Posted Tuesday at 11:04 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:04 PM (edited) Oh poor woman; she really is getting good grilling ( whoever she is!) If as you described then maybe they could have edited in hand closeups of someone playing the thing really? ( As long as they are correct sized hand to suit of course!)....😁😁😁😁 Edited Tuesday at 11:05 PM by SIMON GABRIELOW Spell correction due to tiny phone keyboard!

JimR Posted Tuesday at 11:50 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:50 PM Oh Simon, you've led a sheltered life. Search for "Misery" on a streaming device. She's a really good actress, when given a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Essery Posted Wednesday at 07:24 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 07:24 PM It is a sad fact that film directors who are not musicians do not seem to care whether their actors look like they are playing the instruments. It is not really the actors fault. I once had a job playing flute in a film. The casting director went to great pains to ascertain that I was indeed a proficient flautist. I turned up on set and noticed the harp they had was 200 years later than the film was set in, then they handed me a piece of broomstick with thumb tacks pushed into it, and I had to pretend it was a flute! The music I was supposed to be playing to did not even have a flute! I was background, so it did not really matter, but it is all about creating the illusion for the masses and has nothing to do with being consistent to any form of truth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIMON GABRIELOW Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago There's someone in that alien film (not sure which one) where he obviously cannot play it (English concertina).. and it is rather insulted in sarcastic comment in the film!
