You may not know the name Hal Douglas, but you have definitely heard his distinctive voice before in any number of movie trailers, including Titanic, Lethal Weapon, and Forrest Gump, spinning compelling yarns of this movie is unlike anything you have seen before, and becoming one of the most recognisable voice over artists in the world. Word has reached us that has passed away at the age of 89 of pancreatic cancer. It is a great loss, as he was as instrumental in selling the movie he was narrating as much as the flashy visuals on screen. As a tribute, I can't think of anything more fitting than this trailer for Jerry Sienfeld's documentary Comedian, where Douglas delivers a perfect parody of himself and his profession.
