There was a clip in The Critic where Orson Welles was doing a commercial for "Rosebud Brand Frozen Peas"... guess that was a reference to this. I never knew about this.

Just think of all the people you know who stick with jobs they hate for an endless number of reasons. And this tough, old-school character quit his job simply because he didn't like the way the words rooolled off his tongue. Seems pretty clear that most people are just plain pushovers.

Orson was the man.

With all his talent and accomplishments, he must have felt humiliated having to make these amateurish commercials.
