As we see some of our last living voices for the "Secret of NIMH" move on (and some have passed away), I just saw a DVD of "Under World Evolution" love the dark movie, after seeing it, my roommate, says " did you see somebody you know?" I could not figure it out, so he says "who is the father of the Vampires and the Lycans, aaah! it was Derek Jacobi, the voice of Nicodemous :shock:
boy, that took me for a loop that he is still going on :)

I tried to get some pics, not working. if anyone can get some pics of Derek Jacobi in "Under World Evolution" that would be neat, I found some but I can not download them.

After all these years. :)

I can't help you with Under World Evolution, but I can tell you that Derek Jacobi was also in Nanny McPhee as a man called Mr. Wheen.

There was a TV movie called "Inside The Third Reich" in which Derek Jacobi played Adolf Hitler.

Hey Whiskers,

That's a great picture of Derek Jacobi. I hope that I look that good when I reach his age. LOL :D :D

Heya!

I seem to remember Mr. Jacobi playing one of the two senitors in "Gladiator".

Also, he stared over hear in Englkand in the early 90's, taking on the role of a 10th century monk called "Cadfael" in a show of the same name. A former soldier who becomes a man of the cloth, helping those around him my solving murders.

Me too NIMHmaniac, some times it seems that if people do what they love in life, they age well :) , I heard that he is still very active in flims done in england.

But as far as the best Voice done in the Secret of NIMH,

Of course. Elizabeth Hartman, Mrs. Brisby's voice we all know and love. :) But too bad that she is no longer around.
