I can't believe it, yesterday I was here, jealously watching and commenting everything of the London Premiere, and today there was a miracle!!!
At 6:30 pm, somebody called me and told me he's got a ticket for the Premiere for me. I have to say I work in a broadcasting company, so yes, it is a miracle, but there's a kind of logic, still. So I had to immediately leave my office and take a cab to arrive on time, without actually understanding what was happening to me. The Premiere was in a cinema on the Champs Elysees and there was all these fans with cameras and things to sign. Obviously, I had nothing - I never expected I'd be there tonight!!! I started to queue, and at some point I saw that my ticket was slightly different than the other ones. When somebody from the staff noticed it, he told me to go out of the queue and to enter directly in the cinema. When I got in, most of the seats were still free and I could sit in the very first row and watch on the big screen the arrival of the guests and then the arrival of Rupert, Emma and David Yates. Rupert and Emma started signing autographs. Someone already noticed it yesterday: Emma is just running to sign autographs from one fan to another! Very impressive. Rupert was quiter... But Emma stole a pen in the end!!!  Then they came in the theater, and guys... they were standing there, with David Yates, 1m50 away from me, in front of my seat, with nothing and no one between us. Shock. Emma is thinner than on the pictures and quite tall. It's weird: she had these very sexy shoes and her legs were wonderful (NB: I'm a girl, no vice here  ), but she still has the whole attitude and somehow the face of a very very young girl. She's smiling all the time, and when people are a bit less watching her, she doesn't stand upright. It's very sweet.She actually speaks french!! She told us that she was born in Paris and loves our city, and that she's very excited about the movie and hopes we'll enjoy it. She's got a pretty good accent, but she translated "excited" a bit too litteraly by saying "je suis très excitée"... which does mean I'm very excited in French, but it's usually used for a certain particular type of excitement  Two young boys next to me giggled  ah, those youngsters...Rupert looked quite shy: he said something like three sentences: "I don't really speak french neither [Yates said he doesn't]. Er... I hope you'll enjoy the movie and... er...well... it's a good one!" And that's all! That's basically it - it lasted like 10 minutes, then they left. Then I watched the movie, but that's for another topic  The only “bad” thing about the premiere was that I couldn’t take any autographs (I was already in my seat in the theater when the actors arrived) and of course no pictures! Even the cell phones were forbidden. So it will just live in my mind... and on the journalists reviews!
