The Branagh / HP Connection Continues...
Tags: fandom
Every Harry Potter movie so far has had some connection to Kenneth Branagh, starting with Robbie Coltrane (Falstaff in Henry V) in the first, Branagh himself in the second, and his ex-wife Emma Thompson in the third. Well, no co-star of Branagh's is featured in the fourth on screen...

...but Branagh's favorite composer, Patrick Doyle, has taken over the music chores from John Williams. He's kept some key themes like the main theme, but the variations to them are certainly quite original and fascinating.

And in hindsight, I think he did a great job.

The real story as published by the Rowboat Veterans For Truth!

A little dated, though "swiftboating" is still a fav tactic of Rove's followers so expect it a lot at the local level this summer as he advises his party.

If you were to prepare a list of the top 10 stories you will never, ever read in a newspaper, one of them would surely include a sentence beginning: "Thousands of angry, screaming moderates took to the streets yesterday demanding . . ." -- Revolt of the Middle

Cool Quote
Current Music: Marillion. Discover a lost art. Play Marbles.

[...] it's that "liberty and freedom" thing, Phil [Phillip Johnson, an Intelligent Design proponent]. And because we are a pluralist society that supports diverse religious beliefs, "God's" moral authority has no standing in American society. None at all. It can be a matter of private conscience, but not public policy. -- PZ Meyers
