The 'accent' ?
In some of her roles, i pick up a sort of an accent, European I would guess. Yet, she's...American? What?
People don't change, they just put on a mew mask

Her bio says she moved to South Africa when young. They do have a bit of a British sound from there.
shareHer accent in Junebug is standard posh British. In the DVD commentary her voice is British with an occasional trace of South African. She mentions that her mother is South African.
shareIts more like posh South African English.
As an English-speaking SAn myself, I am very certain of this.
Its hard to pick up if youre not familiar with the way people in South Africa speak.
posh blighty too
shareYeah, in many ways they're indistinguishable.
Posh English-speaking South Africans do try to keep it as close to their 'ancestors' as they can
Her accent in Junebug is not standard "posh British".
Maturity. The very staple of the IMDb message boards.
Are you retarded? White South Africans are almost all of Dutch descent and speak English with what is essentially a Dutch accent (Afrikaans is a derivative of Dutch, nearly mutually intelligible).
As a South African who lives in South Africa, I think I have a better idea of the language of my country and the way people speak here than you do.
Please spare me your ignorance.
