Moviefone has a new article online called 15 Things to Know About ‘Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince’. Here are some segments, check out the link for all 15 things!:
7. Love Triangle No. 1
Despite threats of terrorism (via the Death Eaters) and suspected turncoats roaming the halls of Hogwarts, there’s always time for a little romance, especially with a box of love potion-laced chocolates thrown into the mix with the raging teenage hormones. Yates says the story “deals with the politics of romance.” Ron must balance the affections of Lavender Brown (“Lavender’s completely crazy,” says Grint) with his long-gestating liaison with Hermione (Emma Watson). “I think Hermione’s beginning to acknowledge the fact that she has feelings for him, which she’s never done,” says Watson. “She’s always been in denial.” Adds Grint, “All the stuff with Lavender makes her go a bit crazy.” Poor guy, this Ron, surrounded by all these crazies.
9. Love Triangle No. 2
Meanwhile, Harry woos Ginny Weasley (Bonnie Wright) away from her boyfriend, Dean Thomas (Alfie Enoch), and seeks her brother Ron’s approval. “The whole thing with Harry and Ginny is quite confusing for Ron, because he’s quite protective,” Grint says. But one scene featuring the three, where Ron obliviously plonks himself down between the two lovebirds, should be good for DVD bloopers: “I have this real problem with laughing through a take and that scene was quite hard,” Grint says. As for the hanky panky between Harry and Ginny, “It’s very odd because I’ve known Bonnie since she was about 9,” Radcliffe says. Wright agrees, sort of. “It is strange, but also it’s more comfortable with someone you know rather than just a random person.”
