| When The Characters Come to Life As film-makers become engaged With the characters you love They now leap off the printed page To breathe and speak and move They smile a smile that you can see And cry the tears you cried When they were new to you and me And the ink had barely dried They sound the way you thought they might When they were in the book And actors so adept and right Look just as they should look And now each grand adventure lives With wondrous music played When book meets film, what joy it gives For new memories are made! |
| Perfect Casting “I Want THIS kid!”, the director screams Pointing to him with a shout “I see; he’s perfect”, the producer beams And everyone’s “Harry” steps out "His face has depth the role requires" Seasoned actors note He seemed to speak from ‘Harry’s mind’ The words the author wrote Wise beyond his years, he seems With charismatic style What fans of all the books had dreamed And the camera loves his smile So play the role with all your heart And world-wide cheers will carry You are “ideal” for an “ideal part” Daniels’ so right for “Harry” |
