Man, her acting is 100% in this moment. She’s been a comedic side character earlier, begging him to find a girl soon, but here you can see through her expressions how much she wants him to be absolutely sure that the woman he met is the woman he wants to spend his life with. It’s especially interesting when you consider that Whoopi Goldberg married before and then ultimately decided she would be happier being single. Thanks for posting this scene, I didn’t give it much thought until I watched it again
@@roycerowland2699 Actually it was Whoopi Goldberg singing in the Sister Act movies she wasn't dubbed at all. She did her own singing in those movies. The actress that played Mary Roberts however didn't do her own singing Wendy Makkena was dubbed by Andrea Robinson. Whoopi Goldberg did do her own singing though in those movies :)

Queen Whoopi: If my son doesn't find a bride at this ball it [the ball] will never end! Also Queen Whoopi: How can you know that she is really as amazing as she seems? I love Queen Whoopi, she's amazing 💖😂😍
I’ve noticed one of the few differences between the two Cinderella film. In the animated version from 1950, the king is the overprotective parent. He only wants his son to marry any princess just so he can be around to see his grandchildren. Meaning the live action version from 1997, the king is very laid back and understanding. However, the queen is the obsessive one and wants her son to find the right girl and marry her in a jiffy.
That's what you're led to believe until this scene when you realize.she does want him to marry and be happy but she doesn't want him to rush into something and get his heart broken
I am SOOOOOOOO happy this was the first role I ever saw Whoopi in: A stunning, funny queen with an amazing voice, playing another stunning, funny queen with an amazing voice! ❤❤
Even though I was introduced to her voicing Shenzi in the Lion King, this was the first movie I’ve seen with Whoopi’s actual face. So I guess that makes me happy too
Side comment. I'm mad Victor Garber didnt get to sing in this movie. Ok now Whoopi. I love this. A few years after the Sister Act movies and she still had a good tone.
Around this time she performed the lead in A Funny Thing... Forum written by the great Stephen Sondheim. His music is complex and precise. Lots of words which requires breath control and figuring out where to breathe.
Did anyone know that Whoopi played Shenzi, one of the hyenas from the cartoon version of The Lion King? It's true, she did, and her lines for Shenzi were funny! Here's one: "What's the hurry? We'd love for you to stick around for dinner!" It came from this clip where Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed were trying to eat Simba, Nala, and Zazu: ruclips.net/video/Ij-vIh3gBPw/видео.html
Yeah...I think every Disney fan in the world knew that, thanks. She was certainly better at playing Shenzi than the remake actress, whoever that was. 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Good thing they already meet so it not just love at first sight at the ball and good thing they got chance to talk at the ball better then disney cartoon one
There high majesties the Queen and King are right while yeah she seems beautiful personality and appearance he's only know here for a briefly way bit by meeting her shortly in the street market and meeting her the night at the ball before she high tailed out of there during the midnight magic off way bit are you sure that she's the right girl for you your majesty because we have to be careful around people we don't know most could be evil since there are more villains in all reality then there are of heroes since, I know that since, I've seen it on the villains and heroes wikis unfortunately and a lot of romance can go the wrong way so your mom and dad could be 100% right oww, I do hope his majesty Prince Charming is using his brain more then his heart hopefully still more that's what, I wish for right guys!
@@Poeticlovechilddno they don’t I am a Filipino Chinese mix .. i look more Filipino than Chinese .. it’s like calling someone from either 2 different Spanish speaking countries looking the same, or someone fro 2 different African countries looking the same..or Chinese and Korean looking the same.. ..

I love your perspective on it :) My pleasure
Whoopi has a surprisingly good singing voice despite being a comedic actress. Then again, she also sang in the Sister Act movies.
That wasn't Whoopi Goldberg singing in The sister act films

Royce Rowland it was Whoopi you can tell.
Thank you for your comment. I was wondering if Whoopi really sang.

I love her singing voice
I don't even remember her singing this part... shooketh

The animated Disney version is very different - but that makes sense, since they're not even written by the same people!

Whoopi Goldberg Voice Of Shanzi From Disney’s The Lion King
My favorite Movie Star

At least Victor singing as Daddy Warbucks in Annie was enough to make up for that loss

Before I understood genetics when I was a child I used to ask my mother how did a white person and a black person make a Chinese baby LOL
Lola Femme fatale yes exactly the same thought process. But I just accepted it coz it was an awesome pairing
Filipino* ❤
Lola Femme fatale I never questioned it
Haha yea this whole movie had my mind twisted that's partly why it was great showing none of that matters
Lola Femme fatale I had the same question
