10 worst Irish accents in movie history

Worst Irish accent ever?
Something called Irish Central has come up with a list of the 10 worst Irish accents in the history of movie and Academy Award winners Sean Connery and Julia Roberts together comprise 40 percent of the list. I won’t go into all the details of why writer Conn Corrigan (can’t beat that for an Irish name) chose these 10, but if you want the detail you can find it here. What I’m going to do is simply provide the list:

1. Sean Connery in Darby O’Gill and the Little People
2. Sean Connery in The Untouchables (I’m thinking Corrigan has something personal against Connery)
3. Kevin Spacey in Ordinary Decent Criminal
4. Tommy Lee Jones in Blown Away
5. Julia Roberts in Michael Collins
6. Julia Roberts in Mary Reilly
7. Tom Cruise in Far and Away
8. Brad Pitt in The Devil’s Own
9. Gerard Butler in P.S. I Love You
10. The Leprechaun in The Leprechaun
