Best British accent I've heard in ages!


What a brilliant British accent! Not that any of the characters are actually British, but he fits in so well accent-wise with a rectally the others. I actually had to look up whether he really is British. And I'm British!! Well done Paul!

Just watching it now and came here to right the same thing. It's the best i've personally heard from a young american actor so far.

You can still hear the slurring r's a bit, but he's doing an amazing job as usual.

I wish he was in it more though but you can't rewrite Tolstoy I suppose.

I had no idea he wasn't English! He is so amazing as Pierre!

I agree with all the posts about Paul's accent. I had never heard of him before and thought he was British. He is brilliant as Pierre - in fact, his is one of the best performances in "War and Peace". Come award time, he should definitely win one.

Thee is no such thing as a British accent. There are lots of different accents in Britain. I know. I live in England.
