Practice 13. Read the description of a character from a movie. Can you guess who the character is? Fill in the blank

One of my favorite characters is ________________ from the movie __________________. The British actor Daniel Radcliffe  plays this role. He is small and skinny for his age, with thin face, untidy black hair. And he wears glasses. He is brave, patient and self-less. He sometimes loses temper but he is not cruel. He fought against Voldemort - the villain and protected his friends' dead body. I really admire him and feel sad because of those happened to him
