I keep hearing the word “slip” when it comes to the accent department. I have a hard time believing that the directors, luiguists, and anybody else involved in language could sit there and not notice it. I’m getting the feeling that the accent “slips” are deliberate. I am not talking about the differences in accents, I’m talking about when Sean Astin loses some of his british charm. Perhaps the directors had them say each line a million different ways with emphasis on different words with varying degrees of accent stress, then picked the best one in the editing room. There aren’t too many real slip ups in the actual acting of a movie because why stick with a slip up when you can do it again?
