Staunton: tragedy at the heart of OOTP

Imelda Staunton (Umbridge) spoke recently about her experience playing the former High Inquisitor:

"Dolores is a vision in pink taffeta but a nasty piece of work. At first I thought, 'Ooh, a Harry Potter, that'll be fun'. But at the film's heart is real tragedy, and I found myself having four months of intense acting, followed by occasional wand-waving for the next six."

Potter helps UK film industry flourish

A recent report by the UK Film Council stated that over 840m pounds sterling was spent on film production last year, an increase of 48% from 2005's total expenditure. As a result, 2006 was the UK's best recorded year for film.

Film minister Shaun Woodward commented, "These figures show that the UK is a great place to make a film. Two Potters - Harry and Beatrix - a Golden Compass and a bit of Stardust have helped the UK's film industry have one of its best years ever."
