The Strib’s Jessie Van Berkel has a fun piece on how Minnesota voice actors are cashing in on campaign ad season.

Vanity Fair named Prince’s “Purple Rain” one of the 30 best movies of the ’80s: “The key to appreciating Purple Rain beyond its obvious surface pleasures is to take it in as a spin on a 1930s musical. Think of it set in an old time vaudeville theater, and the story of Minneapolis’s First Avenue concert venue with its house bands that practically live there starts to make more sense. But, hey, no one has really loved this movie for its story (or, let’s face it, its acting.) It’s Prince’s score, and the outstanding performances by The Revolution (and Morris Day and the Time) that have cemented this as an 80s musical classic.”
