Quote of the Day: Robbie Coltrane under pressure
HOLLYWOOD - Robbie Coltrane, who plays the gentle giant Hagrid in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, to the BBC when asked if he felt pressured by the public's expectations of the film:"I got a letter from this woman just before we started filming, and she said, 'I'm really glad you're playing Hagrid because the expectations of millions upon millions of children throughout the world will be resting upon your shoulders.' So no pressure then!
"It's like driving a car. If you get in and think, 'if I turn the wheel now we'll all die,' you'd never drive a car. You just give it your best shot. I think that's true of everybody in the film. Everyone was aware how important it was and what a big responsibility it was."
