@anaquinata: #onthisday On this day 2025. Original creator was talking about “Gladiator 2” but I feel like this could also apply to everyone being upset about “The Odyssey”. Anyway - watch “The D-eath of Stalin”. It’s pretty darn funny.
Same reason the tv series Chernobyl went with the British accent

one of the funniest in accuracies in Death of Stalin is the general wore more medals in real life than in the movie.

It's like the music in knights tale, obviously not historically accurate. But I like to think that by doing that, it was more meaningful than to give a historically accurate song that didn't give the same vibe to a modern audience.

The movie Alexander was not very good, but the different Greek allies in Alexander’s army had different British accents to portray the varying accents and dialects that the different Greek factions would have had at the time

I agree that not having the Russian accent used (and the fact that there's multiple accents in the former Soviet union) was fine for the movie

It’s such a clever way to use English accents for films placed in foreign countries. Shows how diverse Russia is.

As a Russian whose hobby is Russian history, I a)really appreciate they didn’t do Russian accents - if I wanted “authentic Russian” I would just watch a movie in Russian, I really don’t need an over exaggerated accent and b) obviously there were some inaccuracies for the film’s sake (the coup wasn’t done in a day), but it actually captured the spirit of the time, the idiocy of the ideology, and the absurdity of the Russian governing elite really fucking well.
