It could be a dark week for Harry Potter fans around the world.
Yesterday, Alan Rickman, the cold-looking but mean-hearted Professor Snape in Harry Potter, died of cancer at the age of 69.
He overtook Eros for 50 years, but he didn't beat Death in the end...
Goodbye, Professor Snape!
Goodbye, Mr. Alan!
In the play: He is cold and mean on the outside, but he loves deeply in his heart
In Harry Potter, he is talented, proficient in potions, with his own pride and deep inferiority.
His childhood was extremely unhappy, whether it was the endless quarrels between his parents or the mockery and bullying of James Potter and his peers.
He was always dressed in black, cold and mean, indifferent and selfish, always trying to humiliate Harry and find various ways to make Harry look foreign.
However, behind this cold-looking, conceited and inferior man, there is hidden the deepest love for a woman. This woman is Harry Potter's mother, Lily.
Alan interpreted Snape too well, that inner entanglement, love for Lily, mixed feelings for Harry.
When Lily died at Voldemort's hands, he was so remorseful, "I hope, I hope it's me who dies..."
"I'm spying for you, I'm lying for you, I'm risking my life for you, and everything I'm doing is to keep Harry Potter safe."
He kept his word and guarded the boy with all his might.
He hid all his emotions with a cold mask, no one understood his heart, and he walked alone in the infernal path, suffering from torture and pain.
When Dumbledore asked him, "Lily.After all this time?" ”
He simply replied, "Always."
Before dying he asked Harry to look him in the eye and say to him, "You have your mother's eyes."
The boy inherited his mother's eyes, the woman he had loved all his life, and in the end he only wanted to die in her eyes, hoping for forgiveness and redemption.
This is the love tragedy that J.K. Rowling presupposes for "Professor Snape" in Harry Potter.
Off-screen: He is talented, low-key but beautiful
In reality, Alen's private life has actually been very low-key. Fortunately, his love affair is 10 times better than in the novel! 100 times!
He met his wife, Rima Horton, at Chelsea College of Art in 1965, when he was 19 and she was 18.
He has mediocre grades and a standard scum.
She, smart and pretty, the goddess learns to dominate one.
He fell in love with her at first sight.
After performing several Shakespearean stage plays together, the seeds of their love took root and began a half-century-long love run.
After graduating from university, Alen applied to RADA at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London and has since become one of the most outstanding and versatile actors in the UK.
Stage guru, the god of British Isles lines, with a velvety voice, invited by the BBC to read Shakespeare's 14 lines...
However, behind the gentle subwoofer of the line god, there was a functional pronunciation defect in his youth, which led to the ambiguous pronunciation of the lines, and he was greatly despised and flogged by the teacher during the RADA.
"In the theater, a teacher told me that my voice sounded like it came from the end of a drain pipe, it sounded strenuous and sometimes difficult to hear, and it was a functional defect." Alen recalls.
And Rima Horton is the woman behind all these flaws and transformations of Alen.
Rima Horton was a talented person who applied to the University of Kingston after graduation, not only completed a degree in economics, but also stayed on as a lecturer in economics. During her lectures, she was also elected to labour MPs and remained active in politics until her retirement.
Referring to girlfriend Rima Horton, Alen always has a loving tone: "I think that every relationship has its own principles of running. In our relationship, Rima Horton was the more tolerant and humble one, and she was quite tolerant of my willfulness and childishness, and seemed to me like a saint. ”
The relationship between the two is quite conservative and low-key. Although they did not have a license and did not have children, the relationship between the two was very good, from living together in 1977 to the present day there have been no negative rumors, and they have attended important occasions.
It wasn't until April 2014, in an interview, that Alen, 69, finally admitted to secretly marrying his girlfriend of 50 years, Rima Horton, in New York in 2012.
"We just had a wedding not long ago and it was a wedding for just the two of us, it was fantastic. After checking in in New York, we walked across the Brooklyn Bridge and had lunch at a nearby restaurant. When it comes to getting married, Alen and Rima Horton, 69, used the most light strokes.
Despite being in love for 50 years, Alen didn't buy a wedding ring for Rima Horton because she didn't want it. "So I bought her a bracelet for 190 euros." Alen was helpless, "but she never wore it."
The love run that lasted for nearly half a century was a love fairy tale written by them together. Like Professor Snape in Harry Potter, Alen perfectly interprets that "companionship is the longest confession of affection."
Dumbledore said, "Death is just another great adventure!" "If death can be as J.K. Rowling describes, then Mr. Alan will be able to board the train to heaven at King's Cross Station."
Goodbye, Professor Snape! Goodbye, Mr. Alan!
