Lookie, it's Hermione and Harry! Cuaron, in order to acquaint himself with his three lead actors, had each of them write an essay about their characters. Radcliffe wrote a simple one-page summary as Harry might have done. Grint never turned his in, just as Ron wouldn't have. And Watson wrote a detailed 11-page report in true Hermione overachieving style.
"It was an amazing essay: Alfonso read it to us," says Radcliffe, teasing Watson about going overboard on the assignment.
"I have big handwriting," she gently protests.
Lord, that's brilliant.
Watson adds that Radcliffe was so intense and focused, he nearly fainted while shooting a climactic scene.
Slightly embarrassed by Watson's revelation, Radcliffe says, "I do this kind of stupid thing where I forget to breathe properly. I haven't done it lately."
Aww, haha, poor asthmatic Dan.
He concludes with a story about an encounter with an overenthusiastic girl who showed up at a public event wearing nothing but a towel. She held a sign that read, "Nothing comes between me and Harry Potter."
"Thankfully, it was a Harry Potter towel," says Radcliffe, "which made me feel better."
...someone's got a stalker...
