It’s always frustrated me that in the Harry Potter movie, Hagrid just hands Harry his ticket to Hogwarts Express AND LEAVES LIKE WHAT NO IF HAGRID COULD HAVE BEEN THERE HE WOULD HAVE WALKED HARRY ONTO THE TRAIN LIKE DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH HE WOULD HAVE LOVED TO DO THAT.
i’m sorry but there is no way you could have stopped me from standing on my chair and screeching like a banshee if i saw this live…

the youtube description, which is not wrong: “The writer and star of Broadway’s “Hamilton” stops by “Late Show” to be handsome and charming in every way.”
In reference to your hp post, releasing a book in the UK on July 7th would be like releasing a book in the US on September 11th. There were bombings on the Tube and buses in London about ten years ago (can't remember the exact year, but early 2000s) so that's probably why 7/7/07 wouldn't be the best date to release a book on. Just in case you didn't know!
Oh, I remember that now. I didn’t remember the exact date. Makes sense why they didn’t choose it then. Thanks for telling me!
It still disappoints me that they didn’t release the last Harry Potter book on 7/7/07.
Edit: An kind anon informed me that this date is the anniversary of a terrorist attack in the UK. My apologies, I didn’t remember this.

Regarding your professor and the lit review, isn't a lit review like an essay. Submitted on the day of the deadline How can you give an exam ( Q & A) for a lit review unless she's doing a viva session via skype.
I may have gotten the terminology wrong (in fact, I probably did). I know it wasn’t her dissertation, but it was another oral exam where she had to discuss a few novels, short stories, and poems from a massive list of literature she was supposed to have read during her PhD studies. I guess I said lit review because it was a review of the literature in her emphasis of study. I don’t know what that part of getting the PhD is called, though.
This is a very important compilation.
I saw a local version of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast tonight, and the most interesting artistic choice they made was that Gaston was short. In order to appear “better” than everyone else, he was always standing on something or someone. A higher step, a box, stilts. He even had LaFou carrying him on his shoulders, and the villagers making themselves into stepping stools for him. The villagers helped him up onto boxes and benches and helped him put on his stilts.
And if that isn’t the perfect metaphor for Gaston, I don’t know what is.
If your only experience with a filmed version of Emma is the pinched, dreary, poorly-envisioned Gwynnie Paltrow one (seriously, it’s jam-packed with excellent actors who’ve been badly cast and badly directed), give the exquisitely dressed, shot, and cast 4-part BBC Emma a try. I love it so much. I watch it at least once every month. It hits all the right emotional notes where the Paltrow one is cold and confused.
