1/2
Ask any actor, Irish accents are notoriously tricky. Even natives can struggle with regional dialects. So it is a little alarming that the first voice you hear in “Wild Mountain Thyme” is Christopher Walken's, who sounds exactly like you think Walken attempting an Irish accent would. It is a bold choice, certainly, and not the most solid footing to start out on. Still it might be worth giving this odd little duckling of a film a chance.
“Wild Mountain Thyme” is the brainchild of John Patrick Shanley, the Oscar, Tony and Pulitzer Prize winner behind “Doubt” and “Moonstruck.”
