Actually, it was ConAir. He was supposed to be from the southern US - and I know I've never actually been there - but even I could tell that his accent SOOKED!!!! (Newfie pronounciation of "sucked".) Also the accent came and left throughout the movie, and somehow made him sound a little slow in the head, without sounding believably southern. And his character was annoying. So that was it for me, no more Nicholas Cage - especially not to ruin a good book!
