It's remarkable that Hayley Mills didn't even TRY to sound American;
espcially considering how convincingly California-born Ron Howard was
portraying a southern kid at that time.
 As for Harry, what kind of accent "should" he have? I'd guess that if
 anyone really talks in what we Yanks think of as a "British accent",
 it'd be a kid from Surrey who goes to boarding school.
