Post Dan Radcliffe talks Deathly Hallows (spoilers!)

In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly Dan Radcliffe talks about Deathly Hallows - how long it took him to read it, what surprised & shocked him the most, the flaws of characters, the closure the book gave, characters that survive and what he did when he finished.

SPOILER!!: What surprised or shocked you the most?

Dobby's death. He's always been a comic character, in some ways. And that's what makes it so powerful, I suppose. I'm sure Jo's had that planned for a very long time. That was one of the bits that made me surprised. One of my other theories had been that Snape would end up being a sort of tragic hero, and so I was pleased to see that one in fact come through. That [idea] was given to me by a guy interviewing me, a while ago. He said he thought that would be the case. And I thought, Oh, that's very good.


SPOILER!!: In a way, Harry...
actually does die, because he believes he's going to die. There's a profoundly, existentially lonely passage in the chapter when he prepares to let himself be killed.

In a way, the time between Harry learning he has to die and actually dying —

Or believing he's dying...
That time wasn't short enough to be painless. But it wasn't long enough for him to find complete acceptance within it either. He struggles to find acceptance. Ultimately, he finds a sort of acceptance. But he's not necessarily reconciled with the idea of it. He knows he has to do it, but he's still scared. I just can't wait to be able to film it. I think Jo has given me, once again, an amazing opportunity to step up. So hopefully I'll be able to.


The entire interview can be read here and here.

That was a great interview. I love the part where he says he wrote down the time and day he started reading it....I wrote down when I finished on the back....lol
Not that I'll ever forget where I was and how I felt at the end of the book but it just seemed important.

[That person's] death totally went over my head. I read it and I just thought, "...oh." I didn't expect it but I wasn't particularly shocked either...

One thing that made me laugh (and I'm sorry) was [the very first person/creature] dying because it was so out of the blue and I hadn't spoken to one person who (seriously, at least) thought that he/she would die when speculating deaths. Ha. But it was sad, too...
If you know who I'm talking about @_@

<--- argggghghhH! >.<

I agree with Dan about that first thing - it was so unexpected, because he/she/it is such a sweet, unassuming, loyal character. I suppose those are the kinds of characters that are targeted, but it was still sad to lose him/her/it {I'm trying to keep this spoiler-free as much as I can, lol}. That was one of the parts that made me cry the most, lol.

Thanks for the interview!
