I think Daniel has a lot of confidence and will be gerat on December Boys!!! Thats why io love him!

why daniel did not give friendster

Congratulations, once again, to Dan for rising to the challenge of taking on another mature, uncompromising role! While December Boys was an excellent break-out film for Dan, and he did a wonderful job of portraying “Maps”, a very different character from HP, his work in both EQUUS and My Boy Jack was stunning. Both roles required a level of maturity and skill that normally expected of an older actor.

Because of My Boy Jack, I learned about John Kipling and his short-lived, but heroic actions, and will always remember those who lost their lives in the trenches during WWI. Now, thanks to Dan, I’ll learn about an amazing photojournalist of whom I had no prior knowledge. I’ll definitely be making the time prior to release of Journey to learn as much as I can about Dan Eldon.

I’m so incredibly proud of the projects Dan has chosen. He no longer needs to make films for financial reasons, which allows him – as an adult – to select role that are of personal significance to him and, hopefully, to the rest of us. He is both an actor and an educator. Eowynn

OH, ITS REALLY WONDERFULL.

DAN IS REALY WONDERFUL & THATS WHY I LOVE HIM

Well Laura, Harry isn’t a “magician” per say. But Kathy Eldon is referring to Daniel Radcliffe who has studied the “art “of illustion and is himself a “magician”.

I am so excited over the news of this project and can hardly wait to read more information about it.Thanks TLC. :o)

plzzz check it 2day!!!

Agreed Eowynn. Nice post.

Another good project for Dan. I was really hoping there’d be another non-HP for him in 2008 to go alongside Equus and here it is!

But why the clambering onto political soap boxes for some people here? This is a film about an admired photojournalist, about one man and his work, not a political documentary about Somalia. Any political viewpoint in the film will, if the film is made properly, be Dan Eldon’s.

Another great project for Dan although another tragic story that I’m sure Dan will portray perfectly but it would be nice to see him in a non tragic part as I would hate to see him type casted as the tragic hero every time although his acting of these parts are terrific so come on Dan lets see your acting talents spread its wings I.m sure you can do it.

i’ve just heard daniel has got a new role, he’s been getting a lot of work lately. When is rupert going do to something new? I’m irritated.

I was thrilled to read for the first time that Dan’s half-Jewish! I knew there was more than one thing I loved about him. What a great role model for all our kids, and especially our son, who’s growing up in a Christian/Jewish family. Why hadn’t we heard this before?

Judy, he first mentioned it in an Australian interview quite a while ago. It certainly makes him more fascinating, doesn’t it?

To me, this movie will alert people to the whole story, like that movie Michael J. Fox did where some US soldiers did terrible things in Vietnam. The fact that this poor boy died in the line of work is the reality, unfortunately, he isn’t the first and he certainly isn’t the last. I hope it does make it to filming, movies like these don’t tend to be blockbusters, but is important to be seen. Well done Dan!

This should be a wonderful film. I had the joy of writing part of my honors thesis on Dan Eldon, and his story is incredible. Though he died at age 22, he lived more in that time than most people could if they have 500 years. I’m so glad they are finally making a movie about his life, and Dan Radcliffe should do a wonderful job with the part.

Wow, another acting coup for Dan ! The character he will be playing is fluent in Afrcan languages so that means Dan wil take some lessons in those dialects. And I hope the director handles that stoning to death scene well. If given the right treatment, it could achieve some symbolic meaning for people of today.

And I thought last year was his busiest but Dan was just gearing up for more. Even the media has remarked on how he will fit this rpoject into his already heavy schedule. Maybe the filmmakers can start principal photography next year but may have to wait for Dan to finish his HP commitments before he is free to become another character. But then, as they say, Dan Rad is worth the wait.

And let the bashers just choke on their sour grapes. lol. 1) THis movie has more meat than ten teen or indie films combined. If your own idols find it hard to get a project, don’t blame Dan for beating Heath Ledger and other big stars for this role. 2) December BOys as an indie film is performing as expected of an indie film. After only 3 months it has already earned more than a million dollars and hey come on, indie films only have 2 to 4 million budgets. DB is set to be shown in more countries next year so the boxoffice total may yet go up.

BTW, I don’t think “Journey” is an indie film. With the prepublicity being set into motion this early, it doesn’t sound like an indie film. It may just be a low budget mainstream film, something on the scale of “Blood Diamond”.

Thanks for information. many interesting things Celpjefscylc
