| | Miranda Richardson loved playing Rita (and we loved her!)
In a recent interview, Miranda Richardson (a.k.a. Rita Skeeter) discussed how she approached her role in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Quote:
She loved playing the tabloid journalist Rita Skeeter in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. She combined elements of the Vivienne Westwood of yesteryear with "someone like Liz Smith", gossip columnist for the New York Post. "Kids are very generous. I got some really sweet letters saying: 'You were exactly how I thought you should be', so I was very relieved about that," she says.
Richardson also admitted that when she was a teenager she had a crush on Richard Harris, who played Albus Dumbledore in the first two films.

I think she played the part amazingly. And that's so funny how she had a crush on Dumbledore (well, the actor of him)!

Miranda Richardson as Rita Skeeter was a stroke of genius, in my opinion. No one could have played that role quite like her. I'm anxious to see if the interview with Harry is left in the OotP movie.
