of his favorite films (and number one on his Christmas wish list) 
was "The Royal Tenenbaums," which is also rated R.  Though it's got a 
UK rating of 15, not 18.  What does that mean though?  No admittance 
under 15?  Since he's still not 15 (and was then 12), and didn't yet 
have the DVD of it?  Could've had the video and wanted to replace it 
with the DVD I suppose . . ..

Let's not forget that immediately previous to filming HPPS/SS, Dan 
performed in the R-rated spy thriller "The Tailor of Panama" (which I 
may have to rent sometime just to see him <g> though I am a sucker 
for John LeCarre' stories). Though I did read online somewhere that 
Dan has not actually seen the movie, presumably only the "rushes" of 
the scenes in which he performed. But yes, he does strike me as quite 
mature (and definitely self-possessed) for his age. Given his poise 
and how rapidly he's, uh, growing up, it's sometines difficult to 
remember that he really is only 13 1/2 years old...
