good film but...


Hopkins accent was dodgy though. Was he supposed to be American? It the opening scenes he sounds Welsh with the odd American pronunciation thrown in. Also it was creepy at the end how him and the doll are wearing the same clothes

Hopkins character had an English father who worked in the Catskills. Hopkins tried to cover his English accent but mostly failed (aka Dolly Parton SAHNGS)
