Leaky Cauldron editor, Melissa Anelli, has written up the second part to their
PoA DVD launch report.
This one features long interviews with Alfie Enoch (Dean Thomas) and Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom). There are clips of the interview which can be downloaded and there are some pictures from the event.
All of the report can be seen/viewed/read
here.
Some of the pictures included are of : -
James & Oliver Phelps and their girlfriends Heyman, Tom & Jamie Matthew & Alfie Emma & Melissa
Here are a few segments from the interviews : -
Quote:
As reported elsewhere, Dan Radcliffe did leave early because he had work early the next morning. Tom Felton hung around with his brother and Emma Watson, James and Oliver Phelps were with their girlfriends (Heidi and Rachel respectively...I think...)
Quote:
There are things any reader needs to know before reading this. The first is that in England, a "public" school is what most other people refer to as "private"; so though Alfie Enoch goes to a proper English boarding school, it's technically called "public." That'll be important. Another is that Alfie, although he often gets poked at for his Proper Englishness, is really easygoing and fun.
Quote:
TLC: What are you most excited about seeing?
ML: Anything with me in it. [Laughter.]
Quote:
TLC: What's going on with the fourth movie, what are you doing?
AE: Half a month ago, we were like at the halfway point, that’s the schedule.
ML: But the schedule is rubbish, so... .
Quote:
TLC: You go to public school?
AE: I go to Westminster, and it’s a big joke [on set]. [posh voice] Ah, he goes to Westminster-
ML: -he MUST be able to ballroom dance.
AE: He speaks quite correctly, and doesn't ever bend his back, he has a straight posture.
ML: He plays pool with the straightest back you've ever seen, he bends over, but he’s just got a straight back, it’s excellent!
AE: We don’t have posture classes, it’s not that bad, but they do, the thing is, quite embarrassingly, they do teach us that, for rowing.
AE: Seriously, I’m going to be the one laughing when you’ve got a bent back when you’re older, walking around hunched over.
Quote:
TLC: He likes Scotland, he swears. You could be the Scotland tourism boy.
ML: Scotland’s excellent! I went snowboarding in Scotland, it was brilliant.Go, it's very cheap, lovely!
Quote:
TLC: [To Alfie] Have you read, on JK Rowling’s site, all the new information about Dean?
AE: See, this is all news to me. Everyone’s like, “Have you seen it?” and I was like, “No, I tried to look for it, I couldn’t find it, can you tell me about it?" and everyone's like "No you have to go see it!"
ML: You support West Ham though.
Quote:
TLC: It’s interesting, she said she sort of sacrificed Dean’s discovery for Neville’s.
ML: Sorry about that, man. Please don’t hurt me.
AE: I think this is the problem. I think Dean has a far more interesting story, but no, let’s talk about Neville. Just because he gets the sympathy vote, he has a name called Longbottom.
Quote:
TLC: You don’t say “the”?
ML: No, if I said, “Oh, look what’s on the window,” I’d say “Look what’s on’t window.”
TLC: On window?
AE: He says O-N-apostrophe-T, which is quite frankly a disgrace.
TLC: Mr. Proper Westminster says that it’s a disgrace!
Quote:
AE: See, he thinks it’s funny. He doesn’t realize that people don’t know how to speak correctly. Just because I go to a public school –
Quote:
ML: I wrote, “My name is Matthew Lewis, and I am the best.”
AE: Clearly egotistical, for a start. That’s what I could draw from this.
AE: He said that this thing here, I do this extra line, he said that was confidence and that showed, and also that I am perceptive and good memory and he said that the next bit about me being the best in the world was completely right.
Quote:
TLC: What about you, with Dean?
AE: I think he clearly should become a professional football player.
[All three of us]: For West Ham!
ML: That’s not professional football! Actually for any West Ham supporters, I didn’t say that.
Listening to the audio files from this interview is a MUST, believe me. Listening to them is really the only way you can fully appreciate how different they're accents and ways of speaking are.
