Forgive me if there is already a thread on this subject. It occured to me when posting in the "What languages do you speak" thread, that our native countries all have certain dialects or accents peculiar to certain regions.
With that in mind, what films have you seen that seem to capture the flavor of a particular accent or dialect, as opposed to those that have generic accents despite the location of the
movie? (My pet peeve).
I recently watched movies about rural Missouri (Winter's Bone) and Louisiana(In the Electric Mist) where the accents sounded authentic, and I believe many of the bit characters where native to the areas.
Any others come to mind?
