Title: Blood Diamond Post by: Luci on Thursday, April 10, 2008, 18:44:49 I know theres loads of film threads but debating watching this later.
Is it any good and does it require a lot of concentration as I'm knackered? Title: Blood Diamond Post by: leefer on Thursday, April 10, 2008, 18:52:26 Brlliant film....think its loosely based on a true story....not a film buff but i really enjoyed it.
Title: Blood Diamond Post by: STFC Village on Thursday, April 10, 2008, 18:59:09 Jennifer Connelly is awful, and Leo's accent is just plain wierd. Worth it just for Djimon Hounson though
Title: Blood Diamond Post by: suttonred on Thursday, April 10, 2008, 20:17:28 I watched it last week, pretty good but didn't like the female character in it 7/10 oh and a bit gruesome at the start according to my wife!

Worth it just for Djimon Hounson though his accent isn't weird it's shite worth a watch though Title: Blood Diamond Post by: axs on Thursday, April 10, 2008, 21:34:37 you do need to concentrate a bit but it is a good film.
Title: Blood Diamond Post by: SwindonTartanArmy on Friday, April 11, 2008, 14:24:45 ace film, and worth watching just to laugh at Leo's south african accent. TRuely appalling! :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

TRuely appalling! :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: I thought he was supposed to be from Zimbabwe? Title: Blood Diamond Post by: Ralphy on Friday, April 11, 2008, 16:40:41 I thought the accent was very good, try doing a South African accent yourself!
Or Zimbabwean. Title: Blood Diamond Post by: Bob's Orange on Friday, April 11, 2008, 16:54:32 I thought it was a great film actually ignoring the dodgy accents.
Title: Blood Diamond Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Friday, April 11, 2008, 17:28:00 I knew a guy from Zimbabwe and the accent is much the same as South African. I think I can do it pretty well. Dude, white bread or brown bread?
Title: Blood Diamond Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Friday, April 11, 2008, 19:50:54 It was quite a good film and there's nothing wrong with the accents. How the fuck do people think people talk in Southern Africa????
Title: Blood Diamond Post by: Ralphy on Friday, April 11, 2008, 20:04:18 The accent was spot on. I know a few South Africans.

He is from Rhodesia not South Africa though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_Diamond_(film) Title: Blood Diamond Post by: swindon_chick on Friday, April 11, 2008, 20:18:29 I thought it was a really good film when I saw it. Sad it places, Its got Leo in it though so thats always a bonus :D

He is from Rhodesia not South Africa though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_Diamond_(film) It's a Southern African accent. i.e any white person brought up in South Africa, Zimbabwe/Rhodesia, Botswana or even Zambia will talk pretty much the same way :roll: Title: Blood Diamond Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Saturday, April 12, 2008, 00:17:22 That's true. As I said before the Zimbabwe (new name for Rhodesia) accent is very similar to South African. I've seen a few clips from this film and his accent is pretty acccurate. It is a weird accent and if you've never heard a white Zimbabwean speak it's probably not what you'd expect.
