Was there and American actor IN this?


I thought the same thing.


They say that acting requires the use of imagination, and that Americans are too literal to be able to do it well, hence the need to import foreign actors.

I think most of them are working in the US regularly (except the lawyers and the kid actors) so its safe to say these folks were not "imported"

That would seem to argue against his being a sociopath, wouldn’t it? If he’s haunted by the specter of this child and looks for her in a mate? Sociopaths don’t carry any emotional baggage. You can’t have it both ways.



Good point. But what other explanation is there?

Interestingly, Nicole Kidman is now on her 3rd non-US location filming since quarantine (when her family's Australian passports came in handy). But yes, she regularly work in the US.

Hugh Grant, however, does not "work in the US regularly".

He has made a bunch of rom-com flop movies IN THE US.

Not as many as you think and not in the last 15ish years.

Hugh Grant is not considered a Hollywood actor.

Wouldn’t the obvious explanation be that the little girl simply represents Nicole Kidman as a child?
