| | | Tom Felton interview in Readers Digest magazine (UPDATED)
A new interview with Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) has been featured in Readers Digest magazine, during which he talks about his character's frame of mind and references specific scenes he shot for Half-Blood Prince. Quote:
You have a certain sympathy for Draco because he's just a child whose father Lucius has been in prison and has a huge mental battle with the task he's been given.
Quote:
Filming that [the confrontation on the train] was cool. We had Dan [Daniel Radcliffe] lying on the floor with my foot just above his head, not quite hitting him. There were a couple of times I was tempted to lay the...nah, bless him, I didn't touch him.
Quote:
When youngsters are invited on set, they run up and hug Dan, but I don't get any of that.
Quote:
I half-expected Dan to be a bit up in the air with it all [fame], but he's untainted. He never spends any money. You go round his house to watch The Apprentice and you could be with any other guy.
Quote:
Oh, there's plenty of interest, not from actual women, but from the youngsters of the world. I like to think that it's a purely aesthetic attraction, rather than Draco's personality.
Quote:
As an actor, you get pleasure from doing something that's completely different to who you are. I occasionally find myself acting like Draco, though it's usually nothing magical, but something to do with roads. My girlfriend Jade lives in north London and I live near Dorking so I spend a lot of time on the M25. Junction 9 at Leatherhead, that can be a killer.

Yes! I was a bit worried about the scene on the train. Glad to hear it's still in order.
I would definitely run up to him and give him a hug...im not really a big fan of Dan's. Just being honest...

I think he's got quite a dry sense of humour, esp the bit about the face stomping scene!

I know younger kids don't really understand that Draco's just a fictional "villian" played by a (gorgeous) actor...(I call it the super hero syndrom...because Dan is idolized). I would've definitely ran right to Tom first and gave him the biggest hug ever.
Tom's awesome! Im glad im seeing loads of interviews with him!

I love when Tom is interviewed,you get some fantastic quotes! Funny ones!
And I'd give him a hug too.
But the Readers Digest is a bit......random.

Nice! I want to read the whole interview! I think it's hilarious that none of the young fans want to hug him. But I bet there are alot of older, female fans who would LOVE to hug Tom Felton...myself included. |
