| | |  Helena Bonham-Carter: "Bellatrix is vulnerable."
In a new interview with MTV Helena Bonham-Carter compares her Harry Potter character, Bellatrix Lestrange, with her Sweeney Todd role, Mrs. Lovett. Quote: MTV: How would you rate Mrs. Lovett against other villainesses you've played, such as, say, Bellatrix Lestrange from "Harry Potter"?
Carter: It's funny. It's like, the first thing you think when you get a baddie to play is that you stop thinking they're a baddie. You can't really play a baddie if you think you're a baddie. You just find a way in. Once you're inside, from their point of view, you can't judge yourself morally. I never thought she was a baddie. I had a huge amount of compassion and time for Mrs. Lovett.
MTV: Do you have compassion for Bellatrix?
Carter: For Bellatrix? Yeah. Anybody who tends to be a baddie or a psychotic, they tend to be damaged in a really fundamental way. There's a vulnerability, a deep vulnerability, a wound.
MTV: Both are in love with these really horrible men.
Carter: That's true, I hadn't thought about that. Men who really have no time for them and basically abuse them. Definitely an abusive relationship, yeah.

Nice interview

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

Agree that Bellatrix definitely has a damaged psyche. Though I wouldn't use the word 'vulnerable' to describe her.
In other news, I so wanna see 'Sweeney Todd' | |

Of course Bellatrix is vulnerable. Voldermort preys on vulnerability. All of his followers are damaged in someway because then it is easier for him to use and control them.

I'm glad she was chosen to be Belatrix.. And I am looking forward to seeing
her in Sweeney Todd..
