"Working on the accent helped, enormously. I will tell you that when I brought Michael a correct "British" accent, one that my dialect coach was happy with, he hated it"

- Madeleine Stowe

About this Quote

Madeleine Stowe's quote suggests that she put in a great deal of effort to perfect a British accent for a function she was playing. She worked with a dialect coach to guarantee that the accent was accurate and authentic. Nevertheless, when she provided the accent to Michael, he did not like it. This might be due to the fact that the accent was too ideal and not natural enough for the function. It might likewise be since Michael was anticipating something various. Whatever the reason, it is clear that Madeleine Stowe put in a great deal of hard work to perfect the accent and it was not appreciated. This could be a lesson to actors that sometimes it is better to go with a more natural approach to a function, instead of attempting to be too ideal.
