Alla:
Where was she **graphic** in describing suffering? At the top of my
head, I can only qualify Harry in Graveyard, more or less. IMO of
course.
Now, I agree that she is **good** in dropping hints and showing
details that make us sympathise with good guys suffering, that is
true.
Sirius hunted eyes for example, Lupin's appearance, etc.
But I am not sure what does the sentence **If JKR wants to torture
Snape on screen, she better make him one of good guys** means.
Do you mean she cannot torture bad guys or do you mean something else?
After all she specifically said that Umbridge is around because it is
fun to torture her, no?
And I doubt that anybody would call her a good guy.
JMO.
Alla,
hoping that maybe Snape will be tortured for the same reasons as
Umbridge.
