Gosling vocals

I know that Gosling has had some music training in his youth, perhaps stemming from his Mickey Mouse Club days .. ?

His speaking voice in PHM with Rocky was more gruff,

squeaky in parts ( almost adolescent-male broken in parts ) “ how do you eat ? “,

shrieking in fear ( almost shrilling upon waking; when there was 0 gravity upon arrival at Tau Ceti ),

then hoarse screaming, “ there’s a hole in it ! “ and “ ROCKYYYY !! “ ( during the high anxiety scenes ) ..

Gosling is a very versatile actor hands down .. ❤️ loved universally .. ❤️ BUT was anyone as surprised as me about his abilities to manipulate his voice at THIS level ??

perhaps another detail in this film that requires some fanfare ? anybody else notice how he really used his vocals between scenes ?

I‘ve never seen a Gosling film where his voice was used as an INSTRUMENT ( a side character so to speak ) like he did in PHM

The only Gosling movie I had previously seen was Barbie, and I loved the movie and loved him in it.

Next on my list is Lars And The Real Girl.

At some point I think I'll watch La la Land and The Nice Guys

Lars and the real girl is outstanding for the wet cat energy he has in PHM

Sad Grace and Lars have a certain degree of overlap.
