Since the sixth book remains my second favorite of the seven, behind only the Prisoner of Azkaban, I felt it fitting that I should leave a short excerpt from the wondrous book who's animated twin comes to screen today. Enjoy!
"I believed him finished. I am not proud of it, I was wrong, but there it is... If he had not forgiven we who lost faith at that time, he would have very few followers left." [said Snape]
"He'd have me! said Bellatrix passionately. "I, who spent many years in Azkaban for him!"
"Yes, indeed, most admirable," said Snape in a bored voice. "Of course, you weren't a lot of use to him in prison, but the gesture was undoubtedly fine -- "
"Gesture!" she shrieked; in her fury she looked slightly mad. "While I endured the dementors, you remained at Hogwarts, comfortably playing Dumbledore's pet!"
"Not quite," said Snape calmly. "He wouldn't give me the Defense Against the Dark Arts job, you know."
I cannot even contain my excitement at the thought of Alan Rickman and Helena Bonham Carter portraying these characters in the newest movie. Though, my celebrity crush on the endlessly talented Mr. Rickman might play a part in this unbridled enthusiasm, now that I think about it...
peace.
