There are probably 1,000 other actresses who can also convey frustration effectively and can do so while sounding believably American. When the lead character is obviously doing a dialect, and doing it wrong, it takes me out of the whole film. So annoying.<br /><br />Wiest was great, though.adam k.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13485604493059621307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-17618524567160898252010-09-14T14:08:38.165-04:002010-09-14T14:08:38.165-04:00Diane Wiest is the standout for me in this clips. ...Diane Wiest is the standout for me in this clips.

Then, they love to criticize.<br /><br />But if a foreigner is doing an American accent, they will get a pass 9 times out of 10, even if it's horrendous (*cough*Simon Baker and half of American TV*cough*)<br /><br />I haven't watched the clips yet, so I can't say how her accent it.

If it wasn't so well acted maybe I would have griped about it, but I thought the frustration that her character was feeling with her mother was very palpable in that scene and it gives a glimpse of the tense relationship they'll have throughout the film and that's what mattered to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-68488972678306405462010-09-14T12:13:38.223-04:002010-09-14T12:13:38.223-04:00james t -- it was meant more as "what people ...james t -- it was meant more as "what people are saying" as opposed to a review... which is why i mentioned that most of them were tweets.NATHANIEL Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-51230176313898512952010-09-14T12:04:58.361-04:002010-09-14T12:04:58.361-04:00Am I the only one concerned with Kidman's dial...Am I the only one concerned with Kidman's dialect work here? She's usually good with American, or at least not distracting. I don't remember having any problem with her in To Die For or Dogville, but here, in this very low-key atmosphere among an all-American cast, her less-than-perfect vowels stick out like a sore thumb. I found it very distracting in the clips. I don't imagine it gets much better throughout the rest of the film.<br /><br />I find it very bothersome when directors can't seem to bring themselves to say to their über-famous stars: "excuse me, you really need to work on this dialect more, it's not working now" and critics don't take issue with it either.<br /><br />Is it just that people don't notice? I thought it was pretty blatant here. Good dialect work does not a great performance make, but bad dialect work can sink one.adam k.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13485604493059621307noreply@blogger.com
