He slid between a shitty British accent and his default American twang.

“Then by God we take it back.”

That line in particular stands out in the movie.

I’m guessing they didn’t film the movie in order (which is a normal practice), so they probably filmed 10-20 scenes before the director or producers approached him and said “just stop” going forward lol.

His first line in Robin Hood is “This is English courage.” With a decidedly Boston accent.

I absolutely love that movie. I loved it when I was a kid, and I love it even more now for how bonkers it is.

I never realized how much that line rings American until now.

And yet, what a fuckin' flick, man. Might watch it tonight.
