Who Plays Whom in 'Harry Potter'? Quiz

I just saw the movie. (I give it a B, whereas I think each book deserves an A+.) There were some great performances in the movie, and some good ones. Good luck!

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who plays Hermione Granger in the movie?

Answer: Emma Watson

She's prettier than Hermione in the book, but she does a good job.

2. Who plays Harry in the movie?

Answer: Daniel Radcliffe

He sure looks the part, and I think he does a good job, not a great one.

3. Who plays Professor McGonagall?

Answer: Maggie Smith

She does an excellent job. Her facial expressions are perfect. Rent 'The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie' if you liked her in 'Harry Potter'--it's definitely for grown-ups, though.

4. Who plays Albus Dumbledore?

Answer: Richard Harris

He has yards and yards of white hair and beard. Moviegoers will certainly miss Richard Harris, who died in 2002. He reportedly took the part of Dumbledore only because his granddaughter begged him to. He made three more films following "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets." A distinguished actor born in Limerick, Ireland, Harris shone in "Unforgiven," "A Man Called Horse," "Mutiny on the Bounty," and "This Sporting Life." He may be best known for the "Harry Potter" movies and for playing Arthur in "Camelot," but in my opinion, these were not his best roles.

5. Who plays Ron Weasley?

Answer: Rupert Grint

I made up Robert Grant and Robin Pinter. Rupert has dazzling red hair and a funny nose. He may be the best of the child actors in the movie.

6. Who plays Hagrid?

Answer: Robbie Coltrane

He's fantastic. Almost as good as the book character--this is probably the best performance in the movie.

7. Here's a harder one: Who plays Mr. Ollivander, the wand maker and merchant in Diagon Alley?

Answer: John Hurt

A great, though short performance. Maybe he should have played Dumbledore.

8. Who plays Nearly Headless Nick?

Answer: John Cleese

Another terrific, too short, performance from the star of Fawlty Towers.

9. Which detail is missing from the movie?

Answer: The Sorting Hat sorts the First Years in alphabetical order.

In the movie, the Hat sorts Ron Weasley before Harry Potter.

10. Which event does the movie include that the book DOESN'T?

Answer: Flying keys slam into a door.

When the keys slam into the door, it reminds me of a much gorier scene in the movie 'Carrie.'
