Gosh, Tom Felton is really SUPER-ADORABLE in my book. I think a lot of it is down to how much he genuinely loves and respects Draco, and you can see he still really gets a kick from connecting to fans and reminiscing about the films. This is a 30 minute interview he did at the Vancouver Fan Expo recently, and there are some corking moments including:
~ He wants to play Lucius in a remake of the films in 20 years time. OH YES.
~ He thought Draco got totally stuffed in the epilogue scene.
~ Lovely anecdotes about costumes, Maggie Smith, Alan Rickman, Gary Oldman, Michael Gambon, etc.
~ Watch for his big old blush when fanfiction is mentioned. And he says "KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK." Oh Tom, we will, don't worry about THAT.
~ For some reason I find his Adam's apple extra-ordinarily compelling. O_O
~ And a discussion of the calluses on his hands. Nnff.
I lost track of how many times I laughed while watching this. He is terribly funny and charming. If you can spare half an hour to indulge in watching some lovely feelgood chat about the Harry Potter films, I hope you enjoy the video. The very beginning is wobbly and out of focus as the camera is set up, but it's a good quality recording after that.

I think this wig would look really good on you. XD I'm really curious about the wig.
He's so cute talking about his girlfriend. All blushy. And how adorable is it that he used to sneak candies and such onto set.

I know, he really was darling talking about meeting his girlfriend. He's having a laugh trying to delude himself that he's a Slytherin. He's the biggest Hufflepuff I ever saw ;-)

Date: 2014-05-02 03:22 am (UTC)What stands out -- the sneaking food in his pockets- hilarious! All the Rickman references, especially the last one with stepping on his robe. And that his girlfriend played Astoria in the last shot, does this mean I have to get the DVD and watch it? Dang! I forgot to watch for his adam's apple until the very end, but overall he was just sweet.

If you can bear to watch it again *shudder*, the epilogue is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBbNnjvqS
