Optimal of course would have been to find someone with a (close-to-)native competence in both, but I suppose such a person wasn't available. I'll be curious to see the movie as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269693591087704863.post-46488696073315712892013-10-14T21:42:46.382+03:002013-10-14T21:42:46.382+03:00Apparently the actor had to speak flawless Swedish...Apparently the actor had to speak flawless Swedish. Too bad they forgot it would have been easier to teach flawless Swedish to a (Finnish-speaking) Finn (especially with the school background, not to meantion a Swedish-speaking Finn) than to teach anything near passably native Finnish to a Swede.<br />They may have screwed the pooch big time with this decision.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269693591087704863.post-54287369816059567382013-10-13T15:01:58.364+03:002013-10-13T15:01:58.364+03:00Why on earth did they choose a swedish actor? :oWhy on earth did they choose a swedish actor? :oHannah O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06588929055386459642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269693591087704863.post-55857526114328136342013-10-12T21:20:17.190+03:002013-10-12T21:20:17.190+03:00good luck with that :) good luck with that :) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
