Aren't both Matt Damon and Ben Affleck from there in real life? I know they are from Bean Town or at least Damon is.

He also kept that accent in The Departed as well since that was supposed to be in Boston too.
I know Affleck wan't born there but raised in the Boston area. When I visited in '04, when Benifer was going on there was an article in one of the small Boston papers about how Affleck wasn't born there, so he's not really a Boston native and no one from Boston would propose to a Peurto Rican from the Bronx. If anyone finds this offensive--hey I didn't write it
Anyway Matt was born there so he probably had no problem with the accent--so was Mark Wahlberg. If you like the accents and Denis Leary, there's a little known movie called Monument Ave. set in Southie. It makes the place look like a town full of criminals. lol. Not to my knowledge.
