[HPFGU-Movie] Re: Harry Potter: Anti-American?

[Valerie Flowe]

Case in point; last night I was watching ŒCold Mountain¹ and while Renee
Zellweiger had a great southern accent, I winced at Nicole Kidman¹s mediocre
one! Jude did pretty good though, being a Brit!
But I agree that it is disturbing when the viewer gets caught up in a bad
accent job. It detracts from the authenticity. And not everyone is a Meryl
Streep!
I¹m American and I think a big part of the charm of HP, for me, is the
accents. It¹s all so British. And I love hearing the interviews as well.
No reason a t¹all to bring any Œforeigners¹ into the wizarding world. :-)
