Thanks desertrose! I think the new film about Mary will be interesting... I just think its a shame they couldn't find a Scots (or even French) lassie for the lead (although I'm sure Scarlett Johannson will look good!) Bruce, believe it or not, many of us here in the US feel the same way. Well those of us who want authenticity as much as we can get it. We want actors who are from the region and also as true to the story as possible....but ole Hollywood always has other ideas. If anything, these films will hopefully spur on folks to seek the truth by reading historical books. Must be very frustrating for you over there. It is like that here when Hollywood tries to do any American historical film....i.e, John Adams. I found it to be pretty accurate, with the exception of the clothing! But there were other "creative license" taken by Hollywood as well.
