    I've pretty much always heard/read that Woody gives very little direction to the actors and allows them to make their own choices. So however the actors spoke was most likely their own decisions.

      You
      might not complain, but I have heard Brits complain. Did you think you were all saints without exception?

        Oh god, no - Brits complain about practically everything, it's a tiresome national characteristic (and one I share). But I have seldom if ever heard them complain that they couldn't understand the accents in an American movie - and I have certainly never heard of an American movie having subtitles to help us understand the trickier ones, something that I
        have
        seen in a few American-distribution versions of British films with strong regional accents.

          Lots of times it's not just the accents, it's also colloquialisms.

            A criticism from the British about this film was that the dialogue was unrealistic as coming from British people. British dialogue is a lot more than American dialogue with British accents. I am surprised the actors didn't point this out to him.

              The dialogue in this, though, isn't American either. It's pure drivel.
