2.0 out of 5 stars laughing in london, 31 Mar 2004
By A Customer
This book's credibility can only be judged by the authenticity of the dialects recorded on the tape, which is accompanied by a pamphlet that has brief info on pitch and intonation, then the written text of the recordings. Unfortunately, the dialects on the recording are stereotypical, staged and horrendously bad - none of them are approaching any level of believability. This stands as fairly strong evidence to support the general observation that many American actors can't seem to manage any dialect other than the one they speak naturally. The readings are by Dr David Alan Stern, who states that he has been employed as a dialect coach in Hollywood to many stars who can't seem to speak in an assumed dialect (Mike Farrell, Jack Klugman, Geena Davis, Olympia Dukakis). They must have gotten something out the experience-but this, as it stands, is mainly a good laugh, particularly the English, Texas and Irish accents-they are completely over the top and unlike any native speakers I've heard from those areas. I give two stars for the effort, though, and some insight into the thought process of a "dialetician to the stars."
