\n<\/span><\/strong>The actor met both Garrison\u2019s fans and his critics. “I wanted Costner to get both sides, to witness the hatred and extremism that Jim engenders and as an actor to look into the eyes of his enemies and know what he was up against back then,” explained Stone. “These were tough people and they’d come in a parade in front of Costner with their New Orleans accent saying that Jim’s a snake\u2014that he liked boys and was angry that Shaw stole his lover and a lot worse.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
\nJohn Candy was \u201cdevastated\u201d when he heard his role as lawyer Dean Andrews was being cut from JFK<\/em>, so Costner intervened. Stone wrote a letter to Candy apologizing for considering taking his nervous, sweaty character out of the movie.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
\n<\/span><\/strong>Wayne Knight (Seinfeld<\/em>‘s Newman) used an accent he heard growing up in northwest Georgia for his audition as Numa Bertel, which Stone loved. But Knight discovered upon meeting the real, New Orleans-born Bertel that he didn\u2019t sound like that at all. Knight insisted on using Bertel\u2019s real accent in the film, though it took a while to convince Stone. “He\u2019s rough trade, that man,” Knight told The A.V. Club of Stone.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
