“Well she got me the job at Potter, practically, so for anyone who doesn’t know that story, I basically owe everything to Maggie Smith because I worked with her on David Copperfield and then she came on to Potter as McGonagall and said to the director, ‘You need to audition this boy.’ So I kind of owe her everything, so to Maggie I just say my fairy godmother.” — Daniel Radcliffe (on the first thing that comes to mind about Maggie)
“Daniel was so lovely to work with. I’m so glad I insisted they see him for the part.” — Maggie Smith (on being part of the Harry Potter films)
I want to invent an Oscar category for Greatest display of Badassery, just so I can give it to Maggie Smith.
Fuck cancer, this is Hogwarts.
I just found out that Dame Maggie Smith (Professor McGonagall) filmed the Harry Potter movies while battling cancer. During the last movie she had shingles and had to wear a wig. What an amazingly brave and truly inspiring woman.
