    There is that scene in "The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone" in which Roger asks Helen what she plans to do next. She says "I do not know" and Roger "says" the same with his eyes only. Know what I am talking about??? Well, if anyone has a gif of that moment, I would very much like to have it, please.

    P.S. Could one of our native speakers please comment on Roger's accent in this film? For some reason it makes me cringe, but maybe I am just not able to properly place it as a non-native speaker.

    'Camp American'- I don't know where it's supposed to be from, really. Someone American I know thought he was American on the basis of this, so who knows?

    Wow, that is interesting. How wrong you can be. I honestly had the suspicion that one of the few things he cannot do are American accents. Hope my sacrilegious thoughts will be pardoned.

    He's so, so much better at them than I am that I'm not really in a position to comment ;-) He's rather brilliant at accents in general, though

    I am from Chicago so, I can tell you his accent is from the south. I think specifically South Carolina or Georgia. I thought he did a great job with the accent but much rather hear his beautiful British accent.

    Many thanks for the clarification. But I agree with you. It is always best to get his original accent.
