But in fact, he did twinkle several times....particularly when he said that 
Harry's experience with Quirrell was secret so therefore the whole school 
knew about it,
and his comment about earwax...

Really, the fault lay in the lines cut (see previous post) rather than in 
Harris'
acting...Dumbledore is my favorite character, and he looked exactly like 
Dumbledore and didn't do ANYthing that was OUT of character..and oh, 
goodness, that red and gold velvet costume was just lovely...

Forty)..I feel seriously outnumbered......
