Forest Whitaker- Terrible casting.


What on earth were the producers thinking putting an American in a role as a British soldier. He clearly has nothing but an American accent. I usually love his acting especially in "The Last King of Scotland", but this was not really good was it.

His accent's as good as Miranda Richardson's.

Probably one of the oddest casting choices in a British film.

I agree completely.

He's also too chubby to be a soldier. But maybe we are meant to believe he accepts Dil because no one else wants him?
