The daughter of Alan Rickman

my notebook

i was up at 7:30, i decided to have a shower before i went and put on some nice clothes. Well i don't know if you could call them nice. A long sleeve t-shirt, doing my best to hide my scars. I brought my notebook, i wanted to make notes on what the directors did so i could- I don't know really

I headed down to the lobby at 8:55.

Fast forward 1 hour

We arrived at the set and oh my god. All the wigs and the costume and the sets.
We were told we were only going to be watching a few scenes today
First of all the Dumbledore killing scene
Wow Jolly
The rest of the kids we're coaxed off by the idea of the creatures department instead of the actual acting
But i stayed put
I took detailed notes on what the directors did
Of course i had a page full of ideas i would do if i was director, which was a page of harsh criticism to say the least. But nobody else would see it.
They began the scene and i hated how it was formatted, i wrote it in my notebook too, it didn't make sense with the flow of the film

Anyways
They finished the scene about 2 hours later, I had written at least 20 pages of improvements i would make
We were called for lunch
I couldn't see hannah anywhere so i just followed the rest of the cast down to the canteen
Leaving my notebook
I sat down with a cheeseburger, but i wasn't feeling hungry so i just stared at it
I felt a tap on my shoulder
I turned around
My eyes panned upward
A black figure stood before me
I studied the costume before i got to the face
then i finally settled on the face
It was Alan
As Severus Snape
Oh my god
Alan - Allie may i have a word?
Allie - I- erm- yes of course sir
I stood up from my chair and followed Alan out of the canteen
Alan - walk with me?
Allie - Ye sure
what the hell was happening
why the hell would alan rickman want to talk to me???????
we began walking around the castle
Alan - what do you want to be when your older Allie
What a weird question
Allie - My dream is to be a film director
Alan - oh really?
Allie - yes, more than anything
Alan - i stumbled across something i think belongs to you
Oh my fucking christ
had i really forgotten my notebook.
he pulled out my tattered old notebook
Alan - the whole director thing makes sense now
Allie - I just wanted to remember this day and this felt like the most-
Alan - You mustn't apologise Allie, that scene was written terribly
he handed me my notebook
We had arrived back at the canteen
Alan - well i won't keep you from your cheeseburger allie
And just like that
He was gone
What the hell just happened

I began on my cheeseburger
It was amazing
The best food i've ever eaten
I thought nothing of mine and alan's conversation earlier, i was way to invested in this cheeseburger

We left lunch and usually the kids don't stay after lunch, Hannah told me that
Hannah ran up to me

Hannah - Oh Allie i forgot to mention, they are doing a reshoot for the scene you watched earlier your welcome to stay and get a ride back from one of the cast members
Allie - I- yes i would love to
Hannah - you have my number right
Allie - yes
Hannah - I'm going to take the other kids back to the hotel their all worn out, see you later!
I turned around and headed to the shooting space from earlier.
Clutching my notebook
I had read about these reshoots. They weren't very common and could only be requested by somebody hugh up on the hierarchy.
I arrived onto the set
Alan - Allie! just the girl i was looking for
he ran over and smiled at me
Alan - I've got a surprise for you. Everyone can i have your attention please. Now i ordered this reshoot because my little friend allie here had some things to say about the scene we filmed earlier
I blushed
Everyone laughed
Alan - So i thought, why not let little Allie have a go at directing this scene? What do you think Chris?
Chris - I mean ye sure
IM SORRY WHAT
HOW TF AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THAT
