''5 Men and a Limo'' is a 1997 American short film produced by Aspect Ratio Films as an introduction sketch for the 26th Annual ''Hollywood Reporter'' Key Art Awards. In the film voiceover actor Don LaFontaine picks up four other voiceover actors in his limo to travel to the awards. The actors talk about themselves and the awards, making humorous references to common phrases and techniques they use when voicing movie trailers. Besides LaFontaine, the other actors appearing in the film are John Leader, Nick Tate, Mark Elliot, and Al Chalk. Hal Douglas provides his voice for a telephone call, but does not appear. The limousine in the film is LaFontaine's. The driver is Clinton Hendricks, LaFontaine's personal sound engineer and driver.〔, ''Fade In'' magazine; published February 2003; retrieved July 3, 2007.〕 ==Reception== The film's original purpose was to serve as an introductory sketch for the 1997 ''Hollywood Reporter'' Key Art Awards broadcast. According to John Leader, the sketch played to a packed house at the awards ceremony and was so well received that the next day, bootlegged copies began circulating around the Internet;〔(Biography of John Leader ); retrieved July 8, 2007.〕 to date, one copy of the film has nearly one million views on YouTube alone.〔; retrieved April 25, 2011.〕 In addition, the five voiceover artists, many of whom had few on-camera credits to their names prior to ''5 Men and a Limo'', had become instantly recognizable; LaFontaine went on to do on-screen appearances in commercials for GEICO as "that announcer guy from the movies", while Leader has done on-screen commercials for Burger King and Kudos granola bars.〔(Excerpts from John Leader's commercial voiceovers ); retrieved July 8, 2007.〕
