During the years of 2007-2011, Dame Maggie Smith (Prof.McGONAGALL) continued to film the final Harry Potter movies, all while battling Breast Cancer. During the filming of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Smith had shingles and was forced to wear a wig in order to continue filming.
On the subject, Smith said, “If there’s work to do I’ll do it. I’ve still got to stagger through the last Harry Potter. The cancer was hideous. It takes the wind out of your sails and I don’t know what the future holds, if anything. You feel so ghastly, you wouldn’t mind dying a lot of the time. The last couple of years have been a write-off, though I’m beginning to feel like a person now. My energy is coming back. I ought to pull myself together a bit.”
If anything, she’s a truly incredible and inspiring woman, and should be admired greatly.
Respect, Prof.McGONAGALL.(via :Pinterest.com)
all the respect in the world.
Wow she really is amazing!
All my love to Maggie Smith now and forever.
*applauds*
I’ve always loved her the most, but oh my god.
I’m not crying.
Seriously one of the best people ever to exist T___T <3333
There’s not tears in my eyes.
I’m not crying…
I’m not crying…….there’s just a hurricane on my face.
I love McGonagall so much, and now I have as much respect for Maggie Smith.
I’m not crying. There’s just a tsunami on my face
I care nothing for Harry Potter, but Dame Maggie is awesome.
