Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Dale filmed this in 2004, just after Goblet of Fire's release, when Rowling was still somewhat accessible to UK documentarians.
This unofficial doc became oddly collectible after Rowling tightened media control; bootleg DVD traders treated it like contraband wizarding history.
