Weird
My daughter is watching Clash of the Titans. Yeah, I know, cheesy, but I loved it when I was a kid, especially when I went through my Greek mythology phase. Anyway, I just noticed that Maggie Smith is in it. Smith is McGonagall in the HP movies and in this one she plays Thetis, a sea goddess (and according to myth, mother of Achilles, but myths intersect and entwine, but I digress). Thetis is one pissed off goddess and the mother of the evil Calibos.
Here's Dame Smith as Thetis:
Her cursed son, Calibos:
It's funny, she has quite the film history, many with Sir Laurence Olivier, and I see her in a film and instantly go "McGonagall!" LOL
