Oh no! I am so sorry to hear that EVERY SINGLE BRITISH FEMALE ACTRESS IS DEAD. That’s what happened, right? That’s why Anne Hathaway is in this? There was not a single actress with an actual genuine English accent still living? Because otherwise, WHUUUUUUUUUUUT?! You know it’s bad news if they can’t even cobble together two and a half minutes of clips in which Anne Hathaway doesn’t drop the accent a dozen times. How romantic, I’m sure. (To those who might counter with the fact that Renee Zellweger, an American, also portrayed an Englishwoman in the Bridget Jones movies, I would remind you that that, too, was terrible.
