Funny you should mention Hinds and 
"Persuasion" since it's from my 
impression of Hinds from that 
performance that I am hoping that 
Snape will turn out to have a 
milder-mannered brother. <g> Hinds 
reminds me of Rickman when Rickman 
has his claws sheathed.  Hinds was 
also very good as President Nemerov 
in Sum of All Fears.

Yup, that's one of those problems in 
adapting books into visual images 
that no one has yet been able to 
overcome: how to conform to as many 
of the mental images held by the 
books' fans as possible when there's 
such variety.
