“A continental accent” Rudy’s voice ❤️

            

    Valentino did record a song in 1923 for fun and showed that he 

    had a deep , husky lilting voice ; of course he was singing but 

    I listened to it several times and if you pay close attention , you 

    can catch his real speaking voice .  There were actual recordings 

    of Rudy speaking but they are long gone . People like Gloria 

    Swanson who knew and acted with Valentino , said that he had 

    a “continental accent” with little trace of his true Italian accent. 

    I’m sure his voice would have translated well to sound movies 

   and that people would have enjoyed hearing his voice !
