Diane Rehm Podcast

The interview that listened to was the interview with John Hurt, an actor who is known for his deep voice and facial structure. He has acted in 100 movies in the last 5 decades and is a very interesting actor. In the show there are cuts of movies that he has performed in that show his talent in acting and shows why his voice is so legendary. The movie that he is most well-known for is in Harry Potter. He is the man who gives Harry his wand and gives Harry advice on how to use it. This shows that John plays fatherly roles in a lot of his movies because his voice is so comforting. The questions that Diane Rehm asks are ones that are very intriguing and helps the audience connect with the person who Is being interviewed. There are pictures on her website that show her and you would never think that she would look like that by the way that she sounds. I would probably make the interview a little shorter because I kept zoning out and then I would have no idea what they were talking about. When I clicked on the interview I had not heard of John Hurt at all before but then I realized he was in a lot of big movies such as Harry Potter. Another big movie that he appeared in was the movie about the Elephant Man which was a very interesting movie and has John’s legendary voice in it.

  1. John Hurt, can't say i have heard of him either, but that awesome that he plays Olivander in Harry Potter! my question is how did they show clips to you via Podcast? although i suppose if he is legendary for his voice you wouldnt need much more than that... anyway im glad you found your Podcast interesting!

  2. That is a ton of movies to be in... And a long time to live haha. Also, I found some of Rehm's questions pretty good, but there was one that caught my attention as a little odd in mine, but it is good that you enjoyed the podcast.
