I agree. I also think that it is probably Rupert who is unusual 
rather than Dan. It is a definite skill to entertain lots of 
strangers. I'm sure that Chris Columbus did an interview saying that 
Rupert was particularly popular. I imagine that he has "the common 
touch", and can talk to anyone. 

It has been said before that Dan is shy. "Becoming" Harry Potter 
might make him more confident, but it also makes him very exposed, 
with everybody wanting to know what he's *really* like, and 
basically get a piece of him. I've seen various remarks from people 
who "know someone who knows him", and they all point to him being a 
nice, popular kid, but that is different from being able to engage 
lots of stranges at a glance - charismatic he is not (IMHO).
