Shatner - has anyone else heard any of his 'recordings' - his .... unusual interpretation of Lucy in the sky with diamonds is enough to make a sensitive soul weep, and the less said about Henry the 5th, the better. You can actually buy it, although why anone would perplexes me (especially when leonard Nimooy's glorious 'ballad of Bilbo baggins' is out there.)

Where I come from, we call what he does "Smell the fart acting." You say the line, turn the head slightly taking a long, slow in breath.... smell the imaginery fart.... he does it a lot if you watch closely.

Yes, Hecate, yes! That is a well known Shatner technique, and we have a 4 credit course on it at the WSSBA. A mere 2 semesters of hard work and dedication should prove sufficient to endow a serious student (or a congenital idiot...) with mastery of this acting method.

You see, a long slow intake of breath revitalizes the brain cells with oxygen...providing increased alertness and vitality for dealing with the next crisis that arises. This is very useful when dealing with dangerous alien lifeforms or scantily clad space nymphets.

If you are tired, don't add to the thread. It will expire on its own.
