His voice is just classic horror. The man was eloquent.
This is awesome. What a cool guy and a perfect old time film voice
Karloff? Sidekick?
I don’t know how or where, but…I think Jeremy irons could play Boris Karloff quite well in a movie
Measure this actors intellect against most modern actors
He was by all reports a lovely, kind man — you can really see that here. His friends and many who worked with him called him “Dear Boris.” Indeed, that is the title of a 2004 biography.
I wish I had his accent and cadence.
Very interesting to hear his normal voice, in normal conversation. I like his thoughtful response to the questions posed to him. This was his appearance about six years before his death, when he was 81.
I love this. I’m so glad I got to see this.
Cool, interview… I love his voice!
KARLOFF?!
His narration for ‘How The Grinch Stole Christmas’ is timeless. I watch it every year.
William Henry Pratt–his real name–was an English gentleman who loved cricket and gardening. Frank Sinatra was a huge Karloff fan, and after Sinatra moved to Hollywood & started working in the movies, he would have Karloff mentor him on roles he was considering. Karloff would always arrive with a lovely bouquet of freshly-picked flowers. His acting philosophy was, “Say your lines, hit your mark, get out,” and Sinatra idolized him so much that he took that he adopted that philosophy as his own–no multiple takes for him!
Most people remember Boris Karloff as the narrator for the 1966 Christmas cartoon, “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.”
