Good movie accents

After reading the worst movi accents thread, I thought "Who had a good movie accent?"

I'll start with Frances Mcdormand from Fargo

Pretty much hits a Minnesota accent spot on

Another good MN accent is Kirsten Dunst in Drop Dead Gorgeous, I know a few people who sound just like her.

In The Bank Dick, when W.C. Fields corrected someone on the proper pronunciation of his character's name, Egbert Sousè. "Accent grave over the e." (pronounced sue-zay)

I would have never guessed Russell Crowe was Australian from his role in LA Confidential (nor Guy Pearce I guess).
