    Hmm, I'm not sure that's the same movie. This one is set in England in the countryside.

    Yep, Hobo Sound AK is confused The girl in the film you're talking about is Saoirse Ronan! She's great and I try to catch everything she's in. But wow! This trailer for the movie is terrible! And I've heard from everyone that it's completely different than how the film actually is. What is with those 'catchy alt rock tunes, blasting in all Young Adult dramas nowadays......




    Saoirse Ronan has a really thick Irish accent in real life, but I think her American accent is pretty good!

    Ever notice how Irish, English, Australian actors can do PERFECT American Accents. Except the Scottish, they suck at American accents.

    But there are tons of home grown American actors/actresses who are just SHIT at foreign accents??

    Just watched this last night. Not great but also not bad. I've seen a lot worse. The only weird part is the incest going on between blondie and her cousin.

    This must be a recent tradition, because in all of the old movies with English actors portraying Americans, they all sound like a bad Marlon Brando impression.

    Really!! What type of Girls do you like to watch in Movies. I will say this however! Sigourney Weaver in the 1979 Alien did one of the finest Scenes I have ever seen a Woman do in a Movie. She comes out of the Supply Locker in that White Space Suit, With a Small Spear or Dart Gun. She is scared to Death! You can hear it in her Voice. The Alien is watching her from across the Shuttle in those Pipes. She Sings to calm herself down, and Straps into the Chair, Then starts to hit the Steam release, and Burn the Alien out into the Open. The Scene where she turns in the Chair to see the Alien come at her before she opened the Hatch on the Airlock, is priceless. No one knew her before Alien. and no one forgot her after it. I wish I could find the scene, but did not find it on youtube. Paul

    No not really. I did think the Girl who was his best Friends little Sister, was cute, but way too young.

    Most of what I watch can be best described as old and weird.
