Another HBP review: Tom Felton doesn’t need dialogue to stand out

Thanks to Eva, we have a translation of a nice Czech review of “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.” In it, they have very nice things to say about Tom Felton – as is typical with these reviews, it seems!

Tom Felton as Draco Malfoy has most notably improved his acting. Michael Gambon and Alan Rickman do their usual outstanding jobs. Daniel Radcliffe and most of the other ‘kids’ got better already in the previous installment.

However, Tom Felton’s improvement really stands out. The script doesn’t provide him with much dialogue, but he doesn’t need it. Movements and gestures are sufficient for him. His Draco is so anguished by inner demons that at some moments you can’t help but feel sorry for him. In fact, he performed so well, he draws the attention to himself even when standing next to Alan Rickman.

Thanks, Eva!

New Photos and a Fan Video with Tom Felton at Dragon*Con

We have new photos featuring Tom from Dragon*Con from our lovely, erstwhile Feltbeats Army members Southernbets. I can’t remember if she said someone else was holding her camera for these or not, but thank you if you did! I also found a few press ones, and as soon as I can get them unmarked, I’ll let you know, but first, here’s a fan video made of the event. YouTuber TheMiraCorp did a compilation video of practically everything they encountered at the Con. You can see Tom for a little bit at around the two minute mark. He was sitting next to Charisma Carpenter!!!! I <3 her...

You can check out the rest of this new batch of photos by clicking here.

Here’s some – I actually think it’s almost the whole, or half, session – of the Dragon*Con Q&A session from Sunday! Thank you, cloudyvisions, for posting these on Youtube!!!

Some Highlights:
> “For All I know Harry and Draco could get together!” More Harry/Draco pics, and Harry and Draco’s little moment and their relationship 19 years on… what does it really mean?
> What did Tom Felton’s Mum decline?
> Why did Draco Malfoy cry on the set of the second movie?
> Harry Potter Set Secrets!
> Who does Tom Felton really want to meet?
> “Is that Voldemort!?”
And that’s a pretty good moment to tell you to just WATCH THE REST! 😀 Except that, you know, our very own BSERLORI asks a question in Video Number 5!! {YES, THERE IS A VERY VERY SPECIAL SURPRISE FOR SOMEONE REALLY SPECIAL TO US HERE AT FELTBEATS!!!!!! If you can’t wait… it’s at Minute 3:30, about. :D}

JUST so you guys know: Official versions of Dragon*Con will be posted sometime in the next several days! Feltbeats had special video-taping privileges, and we hope to share those videos with you soon. I’ve been notified that, for instance, this particular session was actually fifty minutes long!! As soon as the editing is done, and the uploading-to-youtube finished, you guys will definitely be able to see them. Thanks for hanging in there with us. 😀
