That is a weird way to pronounce 'film'. The only other time I've heard that pronunciation was by a cross-dressing makeup artist named John Maclean who has a campy YouTube channel where he looks nearly like a vampire and demonstrates makeup techniques. His schtick is that he speaks with an over-the-top loquacious enunciation style with a fake British aristocrat accent. It's quite humorous. Here is him speaking:
The accent sounds authentic to me. It is the accent to which people aspire when fancy themselves as a cut above the ordinary folk although the aristocracy do have a slightly different accent which is spoken more slowly and vowels are stretched out further, for example "oh" becomes a sort of "eauw."
I speak with a regional accent from a shithole in NW England and I have always kinda wished I could get voice coaching for the John Maclean accent. Not wished enough actually to do it though. But speaking like that really helps you get ahead here in our snobby class-ridden country.
I don't like cross-dressing imitation folk but I thought he was good in jarring sort of way; he has definitely found a niche there. Incidentally his occasional French pronunciation was good too.
The British Accent. Did you know the British are relatively new? After England lost the Revolutionary War, the elites decided they did not want to sound American. The elites, like Doctors and the Academies Royalty, changed their accents to sound more refined in their eyes—and not sound American. " the standard British accent was the one that changed significantly in the last two centuries while the American accent stayed more or less the same."

Interesting. Never heard of non-rhotic but makes sense. Still is same today - the desperate wannabee "higher class" (but not real aristocracy) definitely have a particular accent which many call "strangulated" because you can only really carry it off properly by tightening your neck muscles. I do still like the way your tranny bloke speaks though.

He is the least annoying tranny I have ever seen and quite nice on the eyes actually.
He does a good job with the makeup, too!
