Sabrina,
I thought it spoke so well of Dan's growing talent how easily he 
displayed emotion this time round. I felt so awful for him in POA when 
he was sitting on that rock, under the invisibililty cloak and this 
terribly unnatural sound was coming out. I thought he did a fabulous 
job this time at showing all kinds of emotions. The fear in his face 
before the first task was palpable! My fists were clenched the whole 
time. When he brought Cedric back, I was blown away at the tragedy and 
irony as you all mentioned. People cheering and bands playing and lots 
of merriment and no one understanding (until Fleur) that Harry's 
sobbing and Cedric is dead. Dan's performance was so true, so honest, I 
was crying and didn't realize it. Dan rose to the challenge of this 
movie so manfully. I am so proud!
