Actually, to go the other way (Brits playing Americans), my boyfriend
has only a few criticisms for the original "Parent Trap." One of these
was the fact that both Boston twin Sharon and California twin Susan,
had British accents (played by Hayley Mills).

But then, I rarely hear anyone complaining about the British Vivian
Leigh having played Georgian belle Scarlett O'Hara. I wonder if there
was as much protest about that in 1938, as there is about an American
Harry today.

Just a little food for thought (or empty babbling, take your pick <g>).
