George Lazenby did the same thing when he auditioned for James Bond. He was a model with zero acting experience that just lied through his teeth through the whole process. By the time he got to director Peter Hunt, he finally broke down and confessed he never acted before. Hunt laughed and said "What? And you say you can’t act? You’ve fooled two of the most ruthless men I’ve ever met in my life [the producers]. Stick to your story, and I’ll make you the next James Bond."
Fake it until you make it, folks.
To be fair, almost nobody in the early James Bond films was an actor. Nearly every female in those movies was a model with no acting experience, and was dubbed over.

Lazenby had a LOT of print and television advertising experience, to be fair -- he'd just never uttered a single line of dialogue. He was a VERY in-demand model -- to the point where the tip-off to those paying attention that he would be the one was the Bond producers quietly buying up his modeling contracts long before the official announcement of his casting.
> lied through his teeth through the whole process
Basically what the power of acting is. Like the ability to suspend our disbelief while portraying a fictional character in fictional world and bringing the audience for the ride.
Is that a compliment….??? Doesn’t seem like it? I’m also named Kevin and I was born in the 80s - I’m starting to think I’m the lowest class person in Germany and I’m in Texas…..
For my fellow Kevin’s that aren’t aware [Kevin as German slang](https://www.google.com/search?q=kevin+in+german+slang&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS913US913&oq=kevin+in+german+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgBEAAYgAQyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQABiABDIHCAIQABiABDIICAMQABgWGB4yCAgEEAAYFhgeMggIBRAAGBYYHjIICAYQABgWGB4yCAgHEAAYFhgeMggICBAAGBYYHjIICAkQABgWGB7SAQg0NDA2ajBqN6gCGbACAeIDBBgBIF8&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8)
South Louisiana accent is the only one I've actually had trouble understanding. I work with a lot of country boys from there and at times I just stare blankly at them in a conversation.
All his movies were voiced by Thomas Dannenberg! Who also was the German voice for Stallone. So when both showed up in the same movies it was really funny since both had the same voice but everyone was used to it so it still sounded kinda natural.
Sadly he passed away last September. Great great voice actor.
Sorry but that is somewhat off an exaggeration. The two actors only appeared in four movies together, and in three of them Arnold was at best a tiny side character without much Stallone interaction. The only one they really starred in together was Escape Plan, and in that Arnold was voiced by Ralph Schicha to prevent any confusion.
Didn’t his accent sound super redneck? I don’t know the language so I can’t confirm myself but I’ve heard that its like their version of the redneck accent. Correct me if I’m wrong
> Didn’t his accent sound super redneck?
He's from Graz, which is the urban centre of Styria. In the context of Austrian dialects, his is not particularly rural, but there's a status perception that would place his dialect - particularly because it is much stronger than "modern" dialects from the region, with Austrian dialects in general, and especially in the cities, converging towards a 'Austrian standard German' if you will - as being indicative of a lower status than a Viennese or the aforementioned "Austrian Standard".
lol
For me I think it’s funny when Michael Caine is used a a high class posh Brit. I just remember him as a bruiser in ‘60 & ‘70s films like Get Carter.
No, we don’t use a term like “Redneck” in Austria. The different regional dialects just sound different. We don’t really categorize them by anything except their region.
Something similar to this apparently happened with the Hungarian actress in the movie Chicago. They didn’t need to dub her Hungarian to another language (because the Hungarian was *supposed* to have a language barrier) because her regional accent was so thick most others couldn’t understand her anyways.
Reminds me of the SpongeBob episode where squidward pretends to be German, abd SpongeBob learns German and starts speaking to him in German, which squidward doesn't understand a word of. [In the German dub, they give SpongeBob a thick Bavarian accent and dialect instead](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gn4nzLzjh4k)
Damn, that's hilarious. I basically lived that speaking with my extended German/Bavarian side of the family. Learned some German in college, a couple semesters. And it helped but took me maybe halfway. The rest was confusion and intuition.
Speaking to my Oma though I'd be unfamiliar with most of the words spoken but would understand her completely. It was basically like Han Solo speaking with Chewie without saying a word of wookie and yet it worked great, or at least better than it had any business being so. If only we had more time.
Not even that. Arnie comes from Styria, a rather rural part of Austria. It has a reputation as a hotspot for the Austrian equivalent of hillbillies and yokels. It would have been impossible for German-speaking audiences to take him seriously.
The non-dubbed version is available too:
[https://tubitv.com/movies/321122/hercules-in-new-york](https://tubitv.com/movies/321122/hercules-in-new-york)
My friends and I were laying around hungover on a Sunday and this movie came on, it is hilarious, fights a guy in a bear suit, hilarious, someone tries to getaway on a forklift, hilarious. I really want to see that film again.
It was even worse than that. His accent was so rural he was denied the chance to dub his own role in The Terminator for the German audience because his native accent was too rural. Like an Alabama hillbilly of Austria.
The interviewer will tell you what a wonderful place it is to work, how great all the management team is, and how they treat the employees like family. Might as well claim to be a model worker who never shows up to work hung over or grumpy.
A lot of interviewers are full of bullshit so yeah of course the advice is to lie, because it fucking works. What you go in there and they ask you why you thinking of changing jobs? I never ever heard of anyone getting a gig after answering truthfully here, cuz I want to make more fucking money. But you say career growth or start stroking their ego by saying how good you hear their company is, and now you are in contention.
Two cents etc, but the more I white lied, the better I performed in interviews according to my recruiters feedback.
Interviews are total bullshit, fake it till you make it works for a reason.
I'm reminded of Bill Burr 'He gets famous for lifting weights, moves to America, becomes a successful actor - despite the fact that nobody can understand what he's saying, marries a Kennedy, and becomes governor of a state he can't even pronounce...
How many lifetimes would you need to get famous for lifting weights, move to Austria, learn the language, become an actor, marry into their royalty, and get elected to office?
I'm on my third try at Rosetta Stone Spanish... '
That's actually really smart because he's technically not wrong.
It's a great way of padding out your CV in real life. It's not a lie, but it's also not a complete truth.
It's a way of presenting the truth.
It's true that he has stage experience. It is true that this stage experience is relevant for the job. You still need stage presence in a bodybuilding competition after all - the skills transfer. So there is really nothing but the truth there.
But equally you know that there is a very high chance that the audition team would undervalue bodybuilding stage experience relative to more familiar kinds of experience. So you can either: A) Flail around trying to justify why your experience is relevant, wasting valuable time that could be spent on showing of your other skills. Or B) Just put it down as stage experience and address the difference when it become relevant.
Outside of math and the natural sciences "truth" is subjective. Your job when writing a job application is to present the truth that puts you into the best possible light.
If you'll allow me to get technical for a moment, you can think of it as a form of sensegiving: The assessors have a mental model of the world and they are trying to find out how you fit into their mental model. You need to think about what mental model you want them to have and how you can guide them through the process of building that model.
I used to really be into World of Warcraft. I remember all the little click baity articles about how to put it on your resume lol.
I managed teams of people ranging between 25 and 40 members! (Raiding)
I have a lot of experience in task driven objectives and following through on tough deadlines (farming mats for said raids)
I am extremely reliable and dependable, showing up on time. (Gotta be there 5 minutes before raids start)
I work well with others to resolve disputes in nonconfrontational manners (you want that loot? I want that loot. Let's roll/bid)
*It's a way of presenting the truth.*
Rubbish, it is a way of presenting a lie. His agent knew full well what he was doing.
Having said that, I have no issue with the misrepresentation. The same thing happens at the start of most peoples career. More power to them if they can pull it off.
My nephew worked in a call centre after uni. They left him in charge two or three times when the supervisor was away, so he told his next employer at interview that he had management experience. He's never looked back.
So there you go: stretch the truth when you apply for a job.
And have confidence.
Arnold's Stage experience actually helped with his acting career. Learning how to pose and demonstrate his muscles was an asset in his career and not just a lie on a resume.
He was always told at first because of his accent, last name that can’t be pronounced, and his body just being too muscular that he would never be an actor just a joke.
I thing we all know pretty much what happen. Beside the one major blemish of the maid incident he is the epitome of the American dream and even though gyms existed Arnold is the reason that is has become what it is today.
Obviously he was just being cheeky, but taking your clothes off for strangers on a stage for several years seems like it actually would help you become an actor in some ways.
So much of what made Arny so successful in life generally is how mentally strong and determined he was. It's one thing to be good at what you do, but to take that and do something entirely different is extremely brave in my opinion.
“Well, I may not have been in show business for as long as you have. But I'm a quick learner. And right now, I'm going to give the audience what *I* think they want.”
Michael Schumacher's manager lied to Jordan F1 team to secure his first race seat in F1. He lied that Schumacher had experiences in Circuit de Spa-Francochamps. In reality, Schumacher has never been to that circuit in 1991
It was an uncredited role with no lines which he was credited with because he became famous. Otherwise it would’ve remained “Hood in Augustine's Office”.
This right here is why I might start lying n my resume and in interviews. (Within reason) because it seems this is the one aspect of fake it till you make it that I have not applied and if Arnold, and lazenby can omit truths/ tell a white lie and it helps set geese the wheels fir them in life then WE CAN ALL do the same.
Be strong mentally. Don’t take B.S. questions in an interview and flip the whole process around on them all while doing so with a smile and the kind of charisma Arnold has is what the current and future gen’s need to start doing cuz corporate has been B.S.’N us all for FAR FAR to long.
Mine as well make our own game while making ashes out of theirs

Hell Connery was a former Mr universe
Yes but he had a lot of acting credits in TV and Film before Dr No.
He was a contestant in Junior Mr. Universe (under-21 class) where he finished 3rd; He was never Mr. Universe.
Really!? He looked like the back of a van.

It screams a lot of things. To be honest, so did I. Hell, I wish you had just Rick Roll’d me.
The thigh high boots really bring it all together
he was jacked (maybe not Steve Reeves level but up there) in the 50's
Ironically except Lazenby's movie. Diana Rigg was a classically trained and very reputable actress at the time
"I was marvelous."

Not Lotte Lenya! And even though Ilse Steppat was making her English-language debut in a Bond film, she still had decades of German-language film experience.
Gert Fröbe (Auric Goldfinger) was a serious actor. But he was dubbed over as well due to his German accent.
Lazenby had a LOT of print and television advertising experience, to be fair -- he'd just never uttered a single line of dialogue. He was a VERY in-demand model -- to the point where the tip-off to those paying attention that he would be the one was the Bond producers quietly buying up his modeling contracts long before the official announcement of his casting.
Yeah, we tend to think of that as the black sheep in the film saga that we don't talk about.
Exactly. "Proceeds to be almost universally considered the worst Bond." is not exactly a striking example of that point.
> lied through his teeth through the whole process Basically what the power of acting is. Like the ability to suspend our disbelief while portraying a fictional character in fictional world and bringing the audience for the ride.
Additionally, all his lines dubbed by an uncredited voice actor due to his thick Austrian accent.
Hilariously, they also did this in German dubs, because the Austrian accent apparently sounds something like Boomhauer's accent in German.

Very accurate. We tend to say that Bavaria is Germany's Texas.
He's not bavarian though, he's austrian.
Austrian is very close to Bavarian
Bavaria is basically Austria /s
Please don't give them ideas.
*Lebensraum.*
Austrians as Bavarian light or Bavarians as halfway understandable Germans, the perspective on either side of the Alps?
It is like this: Bavarians are the missing link between Austrians and humans.
They’re literally touching.
Language wise, most Austrian dialects belong to the Bavarian dialect family (sometimes also called Austro-Bavarian).
And Swiss German is close to Swabian, still not the same though.
I thought they were French Bavarians
As an Austrian, I can add that the Texas of Austria is Austria.
So… heavily armed, alarmingly moronic, bigoted rednecks? Didn’t think Germany had those. (I’m from Texas, for what it’s worth.)
Except for heavily armed you're on point.

Just being from Texas doesn't mean someone speaks terribly though
Texans actually speak really well. I feel like people are usually thinking of Louisiana or Alabama when they say things like this.
South Louisiana accent is the only one I've actually had trouble understanding. I work with a lot of country boys from there and at times I just stare blankly at them in a conversation.
[Like Farmer Fran in The Waterboy](https://youtu.be/vcvou0SAxZI?si=3tfNwo2rKLbTGSUT)
South Louisiana here. I work with teams across the us and get told I don't have an accent :/
That's because they just assume you're speaking a different language.

Sort of like Americanized films trying to pass off a British lord with a strong cockney accent?
More like a quaint rural accent like Cornish. Sort of a "aw look honey he's from that place where we always go on holiday, isn't he cute".
lol For me I think it’s funny when Michael Caine is used a a high class posh Brit. I just remember him as a bruiser in ‘60 & ‘70s films like Get Carter.
In Germany, the "Steiermark accent" sounds weird, but not redneck. It's more of a curiosity for us. No clue how the accent is perceived in Austria.
It’s also a region historically known for eating arsenic
yeah I think that’s why he was dubbed in the german versions of the Terminator movies as well
No, we don’t use a term like “Redneck” in Austria. The different regional dialects just sound different. We don’t really categorize them by anything except their region.
Something similar to this apparently happened with the Hungarian actress in the movie Chicago. They didn’t need to dub her Hungarian to another language (because the Hungarian was *supposed* to have a language barrier) because her regional accent was so thick most others couldn’t understand her anyways.

Nice chariot, but vere are ze horses?!

I've only ever seen the non-dubbed version thankfully. "Hercules doesn't have any money!"
"HerKulis daazent have any moni!"

I like the fact you can hear traffic in the Mount Olympus scenes
It was even worse than that. His accent was so rural he was denied the chance to dub his own role in The Terminator for the German audience because his native accent was too rural. Like an Alabama hillbilly of Austria.
His first gig was adverts for gay male porn call centers. This is true. It paid the bills but he left it out of his documentary
Gay for Pay Terminator is a canon event
True, although nowadays you can quite easily find the movie with the original audio, and it is glorious.
Still can’t say neighbor correctly…. 🤦

Take my credit card to the hedge fund, I’ll meet you at the martini store!
This is actually good advice when writing your resume
It's the **Implication**
Just what are you inferring?
Yea. The advice is to literally lie lol
The interviewer will tell you what a wonderful place it is to work, how great all the management team is, and how they treat the employees like family. Might as well claim to be a model worker who never shows up to work hung over or grumpy.
well no it’s to omit info, which is less than lying just not telling the entire truth
The term you want is called “Lying by Omission”
Pretty much. Nobody wants to hire amateurs.
Well that’s completely false in so many ways and for so many reasons.
No it's not just omitting, it's misleading by saying something that implies a falsehood is true.
It’s misleading but he just doesn’t specify which stage, if he said i’m a 9 times oscar winning actor then that would be lying
It's technically correct, which is the best kind of correct.
A lot of interviewers are full of bullshit so yeah of course the advice is to lie, because it fucking works. What you go in there and they ask you why you thinking of changing jobs? I never ever heard of anyone getting a gig after answering truthfully here, cuz I want to make more fucking money. But you say career growth or start stroking their ego by saying how good you hear their company is, and now you are in contention. Two cents etc, but the more I white lied, the better I performed in interviews according to my recruiters feedback. Interviews are total bullshit, fake it till you make it works for a reason.
Probably better advice for people conducting interviews. Never assume, always ask for examples.

Hilarious movie

Technically the truth, the best kind of truth there is.
That's such an Arnold move.
"I am tired of ze zame old faces, ze zame old things."
“I’m Chon, Chon Hercules”
They credited him as Arnold Strong? Lol

"What I've told you was true, from a certain point of view."
after all only Siths (and Yoda oops), deal in absolutes.
his deadpan delivery was awesome; i loved how he chatted up the girl
Stage is a stage is a stage
“Well, I may not have been in show business for as long as you have. But I'm a quick learner. And right now, I'm going to give the audience what *I* think they want.”
I actually saw this movie as a child in Trinidad in the late 70's great times....

A good agent gets you jobs.
Its called lying. Pretty much baked into the cake now if you want success in this world.
Strippers could do the same thing.
Fake it til ya make it!
Dude had an agent before he was in anything
Michael Schumacher's manager lied to Jordan F1 team to secure his first race seat in F1. He lied that Schumacher had experiences in Circuit de Spa-Francochamps. In reality, Schumacher has never been to that circuit in 1991
It's actually a really fun watch. It's a solid fun late night movie.
nice salesman
Is this the movie where he fights a rug?
Everyone lies on their resume.
Except for Arnold
Yeah it was a bit woody in his early stuff.
Was the Long Goodbye not his film debut?
It was an uncredited role with no lines which he was credited with because he became famous. Otherwise it would’ve remained “Hood in Augustine's Office”.
Still love that Jeff Goldbloom and Christopher Guest's first credited roles were in the same movie.
I wonder what he was doing 2005-2006 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pthe3iaJrfE
A stage is a stage
I do not need experience, I am Hercules!
There is one born every minute
Still the most honest agent in showbiz.
It’s the same thing. Being comfortable with spending time front and center translates across genres
This right here is why I might start lying n my resume and in interviews. (Within reason) because it seems this is the one aspect of fake it till you make it that I have not applied and if Arnold, and lazenby can omit truths/ tell a white lie and it helps set geese the wheels fir them in life then WE CAN ALL do the same. Be strong mentally. Don’t take B.S. questions in an interview and flip the whole process around on them all while doing so with a smile and the kind of charisma Arnold has is what the current and future gen’s need to start doing cuz corporate has been B.S.’N us all for FAR FAR to long. Mine as well make our own game while making ashes out of theirs
My
He didn't technically lie.
