Actors traipsed about melodramatically before cartoonish backdrops and lip-synced lyrics sung by Young, who performed all night beneath a long-billed ball cap (I never actually got a good glimpse of his face). What matters is the three-minute lip sync to "Fools Rush In" done by Gazzara, a disjunctive, sentimental interruption whose presence in the film isn't justified until the end credits: the voice Gazzara lip-synced belonged to Vincent Gallo, Sr. The earlier techniques used a short-cut that simplified the problem and guaranteed a realistic outcome-as if the tone-deaf Elvis impersonator only lip-synced instead of actually singing. |
