I need to download something with a thick german accent....

-----------------why im looking for this....--------------

Ever year, my school is part of a 1-Act play competition.... and our school is a HUGE theater school, and we usually at least go to state every year. So i definetely want to be part of it.

However, the play they chose didnt have ANY guys in it, and after realising this, they just changed it to the play "Black Comedy."... which only has 8 characters, which has 5 guys. There are a lot of drama guys at this school.... and i need to be able to act all 5 roles so i can have a better chance at getting a part! Theres a artist, theres a french guy, a colonel, etc.... which ive got down. but theres a GERMAN dude. and hes JUST MY CHARACTER.... but i dont speak any german, or use the accent!

------------------------- the justs of it----------------------------------------------

I dont plan on learning german any time soon (specially because i know 4 languages thus far, i dont want any german) but i am pretty darn good at immitating accents. Does anybody know where tonight, i can download a german guy speaking english somewhere? He speaks english, but has a thick german accent. His name is Schuppanzigh. Plus, ANOTHER character in the play, Georg Bamberger, is also german. And i cant find a good accent example, and i cant really ask my friends because they are all competition!! Can anybody help me please?!?!?

Ralph Feinnes in "Schindler's List" had a very good German accent.

The Producers has at least one German character, but I'm not sure if the accents there are...overdone, or anything.

just don't go imitating Arnold's accent. It's hideous (and this is coming from a German :)

He is. :)

Austrians speak German tho, just a bit differently :)

There's a German in The Producers, and I don't recall his accent being exaggerated... just the character. The character was so bogus... loved it! :lol:
