So why surround Cruise with a mostly British cast

I don’t have an issue with a mostly British cast, the Brit accent works as a analog to the german. The same concept as any PBS production of something like Julius Ceasar. What’s jarring is when there’s a goose among the ducks – like with Cruise’s midwestern middle class accent amoungst the refined British ones.
