In a
recent interview Tim Burton was asked about his partner, Helena Bonham-Carter, the Bellatrix Lestrange actress in the Harry Potter films.
Quote:
I saw the latest "Harry Potter" last night, which stars your partner, Helena Bonham Carter. She makes a pretty mean baddie.
[Jokes] Yeah, she's a good witch. She had a lot of practice. She's good at that.
Does she ever come to you for tips on how to channel all that darkness?
No, she keeps it all personal. She keeps it all for her own uses, yeah. Witchcraft uses. [Laughs]
Burton will be directing his wife in the upcoming adaptation of Lewis Carroll's
Alice in Wonderland, where she will play the Red Queen.
