Oh shut up Lunn

Stephen Lunn, in his article appearing in the Australian last month, titled He'll always be Harry to fans, in my opinion took the wrong approach to the subject and totally blundered over what nonsense he did manage to spill out onto a page. The journalist mentioned that Daniel Radcliffe had a hard time publicising his new film December Boys at its premier last month and also went to the extent to say that the hundreds of fans that did turn up were solely there to see Harry Potter not Maps - the orphan character that Radcliffe plays in his new film. Could it just be possible that the child actor has managed to conjure up a large fan base as all celebrities do? The film was Australian and brought work to a large portion of Aussie actors, crew members and producers. The least we can do to encourage the production of International films within Australia and the employment of Aussie actors is to give some credit to the films that do happen to make headlines.
