Troy Funny

Monday December 12, 2005 - 1:43AM EDT

You know what I always thought was funny. In the movie Troy everyone speaks with a for a lack of a more specific term a British accent. Its funny because originally they would have spoken another language, Greek or anything but english. So where did the filmmakers divine that they should speak with these UK accents. Weird. Same goes for Alexander the great in the movie Alexander. Did Alexander even speak english in his lifetime. I know it is a movie for english audiences but why they decided to make the actors speak with certain accents when the accents aren't even historically accurate is a question I'd like to ask. Answer is probably something stupid.
