[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I think people think Gillian Anderson has a convincing British accent although I could not tolerate her Margaret thatcher impression. [/b] The truth is they don’t often cast American actors for British roles because there are so many highly trained British actors. I don’t know what they are doing over there but they seem to kick our butt on producing dramatic actors (although we generally kick their butt at producing comedians).[/quote] Agreed the Thatcher impression was lacking. Anderson did spend ages 5-11ish in the UK amidst other periods of time there, so I think at least part of her "real" acent isn't entirely American. She says it changes based on who she is speaking with and as someone who is multi-lingual and also kind of a linguistic mimic I believe that completely. [/quote]
