I'm not sure if this is method acting but it doesn't look very impressive, here is Robert De Niro and Gerard Depardieu in the movie "1900" which I believe is about the 1900 Spartans who fought the Iranians at Thermopylae but don't quote me on that as I may be drunk and high on pain killers.Here is a piece of the dialogue at this moment:
DeNiro: Did you see the footie on last night?
Depardieu: oui l'arsenal était merde.
