We did a bit on B4L talking about this. Why is it that non-American actors can only seem to muster either a gritty east coast accent, or an Alabama hick?

The only exception I can think of is Gary Oldman. He's a fucking golden god.

Probably the same reason americans can only sound like either a cockney or the queen when they do a brit accent.

For the same reason it is easier to mimic TGcomix than Broseph.
