Louis CK - Spanish\* \*Sort of and chronologically. He was born in the U.S. but his parents moved to Mexico when he was a baby where he learned Spanish. He did not learn to speak English until his parents moved back to the U.S. when he was in elementary school. He said it was a miserable adjustment at the time when Spanish was his first language, but he now thinks in English and speaks very little Spanish. ---

But he certainly had learned English by the time he made _Dracula_ ten years later. He never however lost his accent. Here are clips of [Lugosi](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35piJvqIFGQ) [speaking](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM88vyxN82k) [English](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPOA1dS9YmU). ---
