Craig - manchester accent

Post by cerulean »

Has anyone noticed that Daniel craig does not know that 'one' rhymes with 'fun' in standard/world English - he still sticks with a regional 'wOn' pronunciation rather than 'wUn' - it shows a lack of good acting.

Finally someone with the courage to say it! ;)

IMO each Bond has their limits but charisma gets them through. Connery made a career off it.
