But this is from the book :-). "Me! Books! And cleverness! There are more
important things - friendship and bravery and - oh Harry - be careful!" Or
did you mean not the words themselves, but the way she said all this :-)? I
agree with you though that it was the director's job to make the kids'
acting look better than it actually was :-).

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

A director should know when a line on paper doesn't play when actually being
spoken. Yes, JKR can get away with things on paper that, when actually
spoken  do not work, or, have to be spoken a specific way. Even Shakespeare
in the misguided hands of Leonardo DeCaprio can sound like so much
gibberish. Like I said, I've never seen a 10 yr old girl gush and swoon like
that. I think, maybe a tired, panting, weary Hermione as supposed to the
loud, exaggerated one on screen could have pulled it off. But again, the
director has to stop the actor and direct them to what will work, which is
why I can't stand CC's mind-candy movies.
