I can't recall ever seeing Gwyneth Paltrow in *anything*.  I did 
think of one American actress who could pull off pretty much any 
accent & that's Meryl Streep.  My movie-going is limited pretty much 
to historical shows (Rob Roy, Braveheart, etc.) so I'm probably not 
the best person to judge these things.  

Peace & Plenty,
