ah ah ah, could be that the big respect to foreign actors is due to our veeeery good dubbers. The big example is the (now dead) dubber of Sylvester Stallone that was so great to make us believing Stallone is a great actor.
Quote:That's why I thought maybe it wasn't an objection towards language but ethnicity.ouch , yes. I'm not so sure about this ethnicity issue. Blue eyes are relatively common in Italy, overall in the southern Sicily and Puglia regions, while in north only in the north-east. The rest of our country eyes are brown and green mainly.
Blonde hair? Today it is common only in the north, but in ancient times I believe was more common in the greek territories.
Olive skin? Yes this could be the only think pertinent, but let me say the actors in Rome are not so "white".
So I disagree these critics.[/quote]
