Please join us at Leaky in wishing Emma Thompson a very happy birthday. The actress, who plays Professor Trelawney in the Harry Potter films, is celebrating her 59th birthday today. Many happy returns, Ms. Thompson!
HAPPYBIRTHDAY Emma! Not only an amazing actor, but also a very talented screenwriter. Her adaptation of “Sense and Sensibility” is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. ADOREHER!
I absolutely love you Emma! Happy Birthday from me and all of my friends who adore Harry Potter and all of the other things you’ve been in, we all want to wish you a Happy Birthday and hope you have a great day. I predict you will get . . . CAKE. (Seers know theses things, you will, I can see . . )
Happy B-day. Emma! I’ve loved your work ever since I saw you in “The Tall Guy”, straight on through to your work in the HP series. Speaking of which, one of my favorite bits from the whole series is when you refer to the centaur, Firenze, as “Dobbin”. Very droll. Best wishes to you, along with a very loud, celebratory toast of “Hey, Nonny Nonny!”
Emma Thompson is an amazingly gifted actress, director and screenwriter. I hope to see her in many more movies. The outtakes of her fumbling with her food during Umbridge’s speech in the Great Hall are my absolute favorite of all the ‘extras’ that come with the DVDs – she was hilarious.
My only regret with her part in the HP films is that there was no canon excuse to get her to do any scenes with her ex, Kenneth Branagh. They did some great films together and had really amazing onscreen chemistry.
Happy birthday Ms. Thompson :)
Wish you all the joy in the world, and God bless
