habit of skipping casting posts & the like). Anyway, I read it mainly
because I'd heard somewhere before that when they first met, JKR asked
Kloves who his favorite character was. She said that she just melted &
instantly took to him when he said, "Hermione." So, of course, I love him
too!
Anyway, I thought this interview was full of very interesting information.
One of the things that really interested me (aside from wondering what
couldn't be put in b/c of Book 5 and wondering what it was that he wrote
into the SS/PS script that made her say, "Aha. You sense something that's
going on." Wonder what *that* might be??!)"
So are we meant to be reassured by a scriptwriter who had to have part of
his potential script changed because he had not stayed close enough to the
books and had managed to add in something that was impossible? It is things
like this that are making me more concerned about the movie.
The interviewer came across as an idiot (in my opinion) and seemed to think
that we wanted his comments on all topics. He seems to say more than the
interviewee does.
Oh well - I was coming to the conclusion that I did not want to see the
movie anyway.
