Originally Posted By SIR at X-S Tech Yeah Tim Conway was a revelation to me. If it's him it seems kinda silly as he does nothing and is unrecognizable. Ellen Cleghorn, well I'd instantly thought it was her from the first time I saw it, more for the voice than anything, but she's not listed on IMBD so who knows.
Originally Posted By danyoung I've seen Tim Conway dressed up as the little old man, and he looks nothing like the Einstein character from Ellen. Course, they can do anything with makeup. But if they're putting so much makeup on him as to be totally unrecognisable, and he doesn't do any talking or acting or ANYTHING to indicate that they needed to hire a name actor, then it just doesn't make sense that it would be him.

Originally Posted By danyoung >I went to the Official Tim Conway site and it is listed in his Filmography as an uncredited role in Ellen's Energy Adventure - Einstein (1996)< I'll have to give that more credence than the imdb listing. Guess I'll have to check it out a little closer next time. I still say no Ellen Cleghorne, though!

Originally Posted By SIR at X-S Tech <<I still say no Ellen Cleghorne, though!>> Any particular reason Danyoung?
Originally Posted By danyoung Just that I know who Ellen Cleghorne is, have enjoyed her work on SNL, and the lady in the Ellen movie simply doesn't look or sound anything like her. Course, I'll have to really give it my full attention next time!
