I think there is another good reason to cast someone else - the books stress
how Harry IS NOT James. Very often, when we say "you look just like your
dad", we look similar, but what is really striking are facial expressions,
small idiosyncratic movements the "way" a person is, rather than looking
like a carbon copy. For me, it just keeps it more real than what usually
amounts (for me) pulling a nifty fx stunt, which is almost always how I see
it when an actor does a double role. Maybe it is just my pet peeve. It's too
"kitschy" or something.

I also have no interest in seeing Dan play both Harry and James. I was just excited to know that an actor had been cast in the role which meant the scene would be in there. But i find myself, while watching the other 4 movies, to really love hearing or seeing images of his parents, because it's so important to Harry and i have a tendancy to get really involved in movies i love. so to see Dan looking at Dan, sorry Harry looking at a twin James, just would sorta lose something for me.
peace........real love.........
