Deeply (2000)
6/10
worth seeing but accents screwed up
4 November 2013
Decent enough film, but the accents distracted me too, Kirsten Dunst's most of all (yeah, it did sound kind of southern), though she did well in her physical mannerisms, which made up for it to some degree. Funny, not one of the Nova Scotian accents sounded right to me. I'm originally from there, though a mainlander. Made me wonder if I forgot how a Cape Breton accident sounds, or if they were tuning into some very local dialect I've never heard before (Pugwash maybe?). Half these people sounded Irish and the others I don't know what. Then I doubted myself noticing in the credits the job of Nova Scotia casting. But now that I look in the listing here it seems Nova Scotia casting involves hiring a bunch of people from Ontario. Hrmmph.
