I have a delayed Harry Potter obsession. I did not start the first book until the beginning of this semester AFTER seeing the last movie. I probably would view Snape differently if I had not seen the movies. I can't seem to hate him with as much passion as Harry. I cried when I learned about Snape and Lily in the movie. I've been reading as fast as I can just to get to that chapter. Talk about motivation.
I find it rather interesting that Alan Rickman played a similar role in Sense and Sensibility as Colonel Brandon. He is absolutely wonderful in that role. Also as a person he has a mystery about him which is so intriguing.
The role of the silent lover is so beautiful to me. For a person to love without any knowledge of being loved in return within literature is "terribly romantic."
