Spielberg wanted Haley Joel Osmont (sp?) as Harry and there was apparently 
some bad feelings generated when there was a resounding "NO" in response to that 
idea (since Haley Joel isn't British).  I much prefer Dan to Haley Joel as 
Harry anyway, although both are good actors.  And if you find old articles that 
ask Haley Joel (I don't know what people actually call him, so I'm using both 
names) if he wanted to play Harry, his responses are so snippy and immature, 
it's really surprising -- fine actor that he is, if he's going to be such a bad 
sport, we didn't need him as Harry anyway.  And no, I can't point you to 
those articles, it's been quite a while since I read them.
