"Daly's portrayal of Cavanagh's Irish-Australian accent is perfect. His voice is rich, arresting, and filled with subtle nuances. He also excels at his portrayal of the wealthy American Lou Malloy, giving him a lace-curtain Irish accent--brash and with a lilt. Daly is equally adroit with Malloy's Greek friend and the aristocratic Italian accents of the Farnese family members. This is an audio experience to savor, like a good glass of wine. A great story and a great performance, rare and wonderful." He was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor for the Maverick Movie Awards in 2009 for Don Percy's short feature "Inanimate Objects".
