Did This Bother Anyone Else...?

At the end of "The Pelican Brief," Denzel Washington makes a bunch of phone calls. How do you suppose anyone was able to hear him when he was talking with the phone's mouthpiece tucked firmly under his chin? I guess he tucked it under his chin to show off his smile, since he wasn't using one of those phones the White House characters used--with the smaller mouthpiece that doesn't obstruct the actor's face but does proudly show off the AT&T logo.

i noticed this as well and totally agree. he does it every time he's on the phone throughout the whole movie.

Interesting observation--I have a habit of doing this myself. Sometimes the person on the other end can hear me fine, but other times I have to move it closer to my mouth.
