Acting Pet Peeve

Saw the trailer for Love and Other Drugs the other night. Anne Hathaway did the thing that just drives me crazy - bring her voice down to a husky whisper when she's issuing a monologue with a VERY IMPORTANT POINT. Call it the "Sarah Chalke dramatic acting" style, if you may. Can't pinpoint exactly what's so irritating about the delivery but seems to be the go to style for overly expressive loud actresses to inhibit when they're being serious. TALK IN YOUR NORMAL VOICE, DAMMIT. Being mopey and making your voice really small does not induce me to take you seriously.
