And good for the producers for hiring some actors who were neither American nor British. :D
Indeed. It would have been so easy to get British actors to play a Portuguese maid (the accent would probably be laughable, though) or the American characters, so it's good to see they didn't follow that route. And then there's Heike Makatsch and Rodrigo Santoro, who played characters that don't have a specific nationality.
