About show business (2002): "It can be very, very glamorous and it can be not so glamorous..."

Translation, new promo pics and scans // 6 June 2007

Hello EW.netters,

You all seemed to love the Tu magazine photoshoot… well, now you’re gonna be able to enjoy the interview as well! 😆  The wonderful Elena very kindly translated it in English:

“How has your experience been like in this fifth film?
It’s been real fun, it’s been nice to have David Yates as a director, because he took this opportunity to do something really different and that’s great for us.

How do you feel with your character now?
In this film, Hermione is more like she was in PoA, she’s the one who leads Harry and Ron everywhere, she encourages them to do stuff, and she is the brain behind what’s going on. She tries to look up to Harry all the time, she keeps worrying about him. In this film we deal with Harry’s emotional journey, because in the last one we saw him fighting dragons, doing all those tasks that he had to go through, basically trying to stay alive, while in this one he has to face his demons and personal issues. Hermione’s job is to not let him isolate himself and to encourage him, to show him how valuable his friends are. In this film, I had a really good part. I really enjoyed it.
 
What about you Emma: what do you do on set?
Well it’s different for me, I really have been stuying for my exams and it’s been a tough job. As soon as I leave the set I go straight to my classes, and if I don’t I just talk to my friends. Oh and I get along really well with the folks from the make-up team, so sometimes I visit them and they even let me do some make-up and teach me some stuff. It’s impressive to see everything they do, the wounds, the scars…
 
And did they give you any beauty tips?
Well I’ve learn a lot of things, from how to put on base, not with your fingers but using a brush, and things like that.
 
Do you get the HP books before they hit the libraries?
No, I had to queue to buy my Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince book in the airport’s library during holidays, but I read it in two days. I loved it, I got teary-eyed and I’m still telling myself: No, Dumbledore will be back, he can’t just go like that.
 
Would you like to keep on acting after the HP films?
I would like to go to university, but I would definitely like to do some theater, and I think the Harry Potter movies are unusual, with all the time it takes to film them and how big they are, so I would definitely like to try other things. But who knows, one of the good things about it is to see all these options and offers I’ve got, and that makes me feel lucky. It’s great.

Is Snape good or evil?
From the beginning I felt he was going to do something big, and I really think he is evil, and the reason why he came back is because Dumbledore trusts people, he trusts them too much, and sometimes it’s not that good. We see Dumbledore as if he was perfect, he seems like the character from “To kill a mockingbird”, in that he relies blindly on people… and yes, forgive me for involving my English classes, but yes, he trusts too much, that’s what I think that was the message.”
 
For those of you who wonder about “To kill a mockingbird”, it’s a novel written by Harper Lee. It was published in 1960 and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1961. According to Wikipedia, it’s a coming of age story about a sister and a brother, who are growing up in the deep South of America in the 1930s. You now know which book to buy next time you hit the bookstore! 😛
 
Apart from that, thanks to Portkey.it, we also have new OotP promo pictures: click here, here and here to see the ones featuring Hermione.
 
Last but definitely not least, our friends from UHP just posted great scans of the French magazine One: just click here to see them.
 
OK, that’s all for today…
 
Bye!

    One other thing…I disagree with Emma about Snape. I don't think he's really evil. In the end, I think he'll help Harry defeat Voldemort. 😛
