You may be right MacEachaidh. Course everyone hears accents in their own way I think. When I think of Australian accent I think more of Paul Hogan or Steve Irwin. To my ears Mr. Crowe's accent doesn't sound the same. I don't know why as I know all three are Australian.

But I can't agree with you. I think in movies like "Gladiator" and "Robin Hood" he very clearly retains his Aussie accent. Maybe not as strong as, say, Hugh Jackman in "Australia", but that was bunged on anyway - still, Crowe's accent is fairly pervasive.
