Alan Rickman Pranks Daniel Radcliffe in Classic HARRY POTTER Outtake
It's always odd when actors die. Of course they were near and dear to their family, but they're also near and dear to us as fans. The weird thing is, we essentially loved completely different people. There are always the roles, and the person behind them. When a celebrity dies, I always enjoy seeing candid moments of them not in character, just to get a small sense of what they were like when they weren't in a movie.
I managed to find this Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban outtake in which Alan Rickman coordinates a stunt to prank Daniel Radcliffe with a fart machine, and I absolutely love it. I typically view him as stoic, which is undoubtedly a byproduct of his roles, so it's a trip to see him so casual and capable of something so basic and funny as this. As far as this is concerned, he seemed like he was as well-loved off screen as he was on it.
