After a very disturbing, mind-crashing and AHHHNOOOMYDEARF*CKINGGODIHATEYOU session of watching "Glücksbärchis" with Corabora and Princess Blaubeere, I was in desperate need for some slashy-stuff, in order to calm my mind.

So I came across this interview with Kenneth Branagh and Kevin Kline, the voice talents of Miguel and Tulio of the movie "The Road to El Dorado". (How suprising if you take a look around here, isn't it? ;-) ) And as both of them are really funny guys, I decided to put up some of their best quotations!

To begin, one of our colleagues quoted some dimwit in the print press who wrote that the film had several ambiguously gay moments . . .

Both (in disbelieving mock horror and LOUDLY): Ambiguously Gay???
[huge laughter from both sides of the table]
Kenneth Branagh: No, it was a butch-butch thing
Kevin Kline: Ambiguously gay moments? (to Branagh) That's the accent.
Kenneth Branagh: (to Kline) I was doing giddy. I never did gay. I did giddy.
Kevin Kline: (to Branagh) It comes across gay.

CrankyCritic: What was your professional relationship before this?
Kenneth Branagh: None of your business!


CrankyCritic: Did you find yourselves looking at the road movies or Butch Cassidy or other "buddy" movies to get in the groove of.
Kenneth Branagh: The gay movies. We looked at all the gay movies.
Kevin Kline: I watched In and Out frequently.
Kenneth Branagh: Well you practiced . . .



CrankyCritic: You've both done definitive Hamlet's in your fields.
Kevin Kline: Well, one of them must be more definitive than the other!
Kenneth Branagh: (to Kline) Yours was more definitive.
Kevin Kline: (to Branagh) No, yours was, while you were doing it, was definitive.
CrankyCritic: Did that come up at all in your professional relationship.
Kevin Kline: (You mean) I'll show you my Hamlet if you show me yours? And which one's bigger and longer? Well, his was uncut so he gets the [our side of the table starts laughing. Branagh doesn't let Kline finish the double entendre]


*snort* My, I love these guys. And Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet in the movie was... gold. And godly. And everything.

If you are interested in the whole interview... http://www.crankycritic.com/qa/branaghkline.html

There is a lot more funny stuff and some very deep thoughts about Shakespeare and peotic license.
