OTwayOT: Trivia nut i just dug up a super piece of trivia.
O.K. most know Alfonso Bedoya said "Badges?! I don't worry about no STEENKIN' badges!"
So i come across a notation that Peter Sellers did the voice of Alfonso Bedoya in the movie Black Rose(from 1950).
This makes no sense, why????? why??? Why would Peter Sellers have his voice put in place of Bedoya's one of kind voice????!!!
I search for a clue, and i have decided Sellers voice is dubbed in at a later date after release of movie as this review gives clue as to why.
<<Tyrone Power was losing the vigor and mobile features of his youth, but he is still an eminently suitable swashbuckler. Hawkins and Welles play their standardized roles with tongues firmly in cheek and Aubrey is very appealing as the heroine. Perhaps the only exception is the arresting Bedoya, whose telltale Mexican accent, however, unfortunately belies his Asian characterization.>>
Deduction Bedoya's arresting performance is nonetheless injured by his Asian character sounding mexican:).
What person on the face of the earth at that time possessed the genius of doing Bedoya doing an Asian accent--only one--Peter Sellers--case closed:)
Now that is trivia!;)
Bedoya performed in 175 mexican films aside from his movies in U.S.---now i am trying find out why he died so young--at 53.
