I don't know about director.  

But when I first read the book, I thought of Bebe
Neuwirth as McGonagall.  I think it's because of
Lilith Crane- it's just easy to imagine her with the
tight black haired bun.

I agree though, Hollywood would have butchered it.

Bruce Willis as Albus Dumbledore!

(Still hoping for Patrick Stewart as Dumbledore, but
I'm never going to get that, am I?)
