Different people have different styles of learning accents, says Robert Easton, who began a movie acting career in , but later turned to dialogue coaching as his primary occupation.
Some people have a natural "good ear," and can repeat what they hear simply by listening. It's as if it's another costume and they put it on, and it's very freeing," Himelstein said. Others are more visual -- Easton has his own system of re-spelling words so that people can better pronounce them in the desired accent. These visual learners can also benefit from drawings of lip and tongue positions that produce specific sounds.
Others are kinesthetic, needing to learn what to do in detailed physical terms, he said. When it comes to the number of dialects, the winner for Easton's clients is likely John Saxon of "Enter the Dragon" and "A Nightmare on Elm Street" fame; who has learned 23 different ways of speaking from him, Easton said. The late Charlton Heston also came back many times. Easton has been getting fewer new clients recently, but enjoys such repeats as Forest Whitaker.
When Whitaker was filming "The Last King of Scotland" on location in Uganda and the script would change, he would call Easton at a. Performers aren't the only ones who seek help with dialects. Easton has coached teachers, doctors and foreign businessmen with their speech. He's also coached attorneys who had been losing jury cases. A New Yorker who talked too fast learned to slow down and started winning his cases; an Oklahoman who spoke too slowly got training in speeding up his words, and started having more success in the courtroom.
Himelstein believes anyone with sound hearing can learn to speak with any accent, although it does take discipline. Americans do tend to have more difficulty with the Slavic, British and Australian dialects, she said. The Transylvanian varieties are part of the northern group of Romanian dialects, along with Moldavian and Banat.

Even Martin Landau got this one wrong - compare the original "atomic supermen" speech in Bride of the Monster to Landau's version in Ed Wood. See also Fang Thpeak and Sssssnaketalk. This trope has nothing to do with the Vord.
