Micheal Gambon

[JAN X]

I agree with others that Patrick Stewart would have made a much 
better DD than Gambon. How can you just play a part, surely there 
has to be some sort of preparation for a character to get an 
insight into what they are like.  In an interview on the subject 
of him playing DD in POA, Gambon said he was asked by the director 
why he was using an Irish lilt in some words, and he said he was 
trying to keep slightly to the way Harris played DD, so is he 
really playing himself?
