I have never heard Hollywood produce a believable Southern accent.

I recently watched Sean Penn in that movie where he played Huey Long and laughed all the way through it, at his stupid "so-called" Southern accent. I've lived in the South all my life and never heard anyone talk like that.

I also noticed Hillary yesterday trying to talk Southern, she failed miserably.

All the King's Men.

All of the accents were horrible. Who's idea was it to cast British actors?

Ha, Try watching hollywoold do a Boston accent. I just watched the Departed and I was asking myself are these people for real? And a few of those guys ARE from Boston.
