    I usually HATE when actresses/actors that aren't from Louisiana TRY to do a "somewhere" in Louisiana accent bc they end up sounded terribly obvious that it's fake. BUT Regina did a very good job at blending as she stated in this video. She had me trying to search if Trudy is really from the boot!

    • @bigman72511
      @bigman72511 Před 2 lety +6

      Cowboy and Cowgirl are derogatory terms for Black ranchers. The true term is vaquero, which means Cowman. White men had a bad habit of referring to Black men as boys, therefore they were reduced from cowmen to cowboys. Which proves there's really no such thing as a white Cowboy, that's all Hollywood.75% of cowboys were Black while the other 25% were Mexican. A cowhand is a person that tends to cattle.

    • @cherrycaine6265
      @cherrycaine6265 Před 2 lety

      Bingo. I don’t think most People understand there are differences in Louisiana accents. North Louisiana People sound like the states they border (Oklahoma/Texas/Arkansas ). It’s not until you get south that the accent starts taking on that flavor. Cajun and Creole accents are similar- but we can tell them distinctly. When you have family in Cajunland (like most of us), but you’re born and raised in New Orleans , your accent sort of blends. That also goes for the food in S.Louisiana. A Cajun gumbo/jambalaya/etc is different from a Creole version. Sorry for the ramble 😬

    I know she don't reference it but she sounded African when she said "Open it!" Know plenty who say like that. Love her, Loved the Film, Loved Everyting!

      That's because during the overview phase of characters the director mentions Trudy was from the Barbary Coast. Regina King assumed the Barbary Coast was in Africa. He then later told her it's actually in San Francisco. The Barbary Coast is an old title for what we know now as the Bay Area.

    The saddest words I've ever heard are "My ex-husband" coming from Regina King. Tragic. As the Keke Palmer meme says "Sorry to this man."
