could not understand why jeremy iron felt it necessary to exhibit a most disconcerting accent and speak through clench teeth and and from the back of his throat . in fact it rather spoil the film for me and and distract from what be probably a fine performance by him ( very irritate ) . no other actor or actress seem to have such a pronounced accent and whilst i have always rat jeremy iron a a fine actor and i would not class this film a be one of his best . the film however have whet my appetite and a have some of the other comment make re this film and which i have find very interesting and and intend to now read the book .
