Daniel Radcliffe - [Marcia Gresham & Alan Radcliffe Appr.] If it wasn't for them we wouldn't be here!

A new thread dedicated to the appreciation of Dan's parents Marcia Gresham and Alan Radcliffe.

It's quite obvious that while we fawn over Dan and his talents there's two people that deserve a great deal of praise for raising such a well adjusted, mature, self reliant and sensitive young man we see before us. And what other fan forum board can say that? Give it up for the parentals man!

Cool!

No problem! Yeah, I kind of like it when the things are in the center and after doing that, I ended up changing a couple other things as well.

Yeah well when you can have columns it works better if everything is centered I find. Good Job.

Thanks! I'd love to see new pictures again soon. Although, it might not be as soon as I would like. *sigh*

I know, they tend to stay far away from the cameras. It's only when we get really lucky to capture one. Almost as exciting as when we get new shots of Dan.

I love the opening.

A cute Marcia mention about Dan and the way he argues.

Quote:

His mother, Marcia Jeannine Gresham, told her son that as the “Potter” novels went along, she saw more of her son in the character and vice versa.

“She read ‘Half-Blood Prince’ and she did say, ‘Harry has started to argue like you argue,'” Radcliffe said with a roll of his eyes. “He is very good in analogies, and I also use a lot of semantics, and it does really irritate people into submission really. Obviously, J.K. Rowling actually had cameras in my house and knows that is how I argue...”

Radcliffe laughed but then grew a bit serious.

That was adorable!

It was such a Mother-like thing to say. I love it. And I also loved hearing about him and his father spending time together on set. That was cute as well! They have the same walk. LOL.

Oh yeah the father quote! I forgot that one.

Quote:

Fame has not pulled Radcliffe, an only child, away from his family. His father, Alan Radcliffe, stood not 20 yards away from Radcliffe during the filming of the holiday party scene and afterward they took a short stroll; viewed from a distance, the pair have the same gait and profile. Radcliffe chuckled when asked about it. “It’s true, isn’t it? People say I look like my father; I don’t. I just have all the same mannerisms. If we walk down the road for 30 seconds, we will fall into step with each other.”

This was in the Movie Magic magazine! I can't remember if I've seen it before or not so I'm posting it just in case.

I see Alan!
