An Outspoken Analysis of the Some of the Worst Accents That Actors Have Employed in Films

In a recent video by Cracked, host Tom Reinman speaks very plainly about the audience’s tacit acceptance of the some of the most horrible and exaggerated accents employed by actors in certain roles who don’t normally speak that way.
