The final scene of "The Jacket"

Keira's incredibly deep and phlegmatic American accent add to her appeal in what I find to be a highly romantic ending to an otherwise mediocre, if well-acted, film.

Her voice is so much easier on the ears when she speaks with an american accent, her normal/british one is so annoying.

@ShaynaSmee

What would you think if the accent were to be a hybrid - a little bit American, and a little bit British?

There are lots of British accents, its her Estuary accent that you (and lots of other people, though not myself) find annoying.

what is the backround music when she drives up to him and it is also all through the film.

what is it?

[conspiracytheorist77]

I believe it is called "Fleeting Smile" by Brian Eno, which is an adaption of Objects in Space - 76, by Sidottu.

I like it, it very much sets the romantic tone of the film.

i'm alittle confused at the end, she drives past him as if she doesn't know him as happened at the beggining, but then at the end asks how much time they have as if she understands the predicament due to the previous encounters>>

[conspiracytheorist77]

That was a line spoken in a previous scene - I'm not sure it had anything do with the character's cognizance of him in that end scene, I thought of it more as a matter of trying to sum up the film. It IS confusing. We need a director's commentary, but alas, even those are not always illuminating, and one is not included on the DVD, although the documentary is interesting and there are three alternate endings included. I would also like to see this film on Blu-ray sometime.

[jtravelle]

@conspiracytheorist77 fleeting smile is actually by Brian's brother Roger, and can be found on Music For Films VOL 3. (still beautiful)

this track, by Brian, is referred to as Love Theme and unfortunately has not been officially released.

y yo que pensaba que todo era facil y que solo cambiando un hecho muy pequeño e insignificante todo lo grande que cambiaria una vida

[celestita71]

@ShaynaSmee listen, Im not british so I can say this, how can you like "american" accent, its nasal, (wee weee weee) sound, compared to a sensual british. People around the world are used to american accent because of hollywood brainwash, plus they usually use british accent to depict villians. Im southamerican and I love british accent, its just so much superior, funny, stylish and classy than american. In fact, american accent is to me a symbol of mediocrity.
