In a recent interview
to discuss her new movie Driving Lessons, Julie Walters from the Harry Potter movies briefly discussed filming on Order of the Phoenix.
Julie discussing a scene from Order of the Phoenix:
Oh yeah, Christmas; we have a very good Christmas. The sets are fantastic; Mark (Williams), who plays Mr. Weasley, said they made his hair stand up on the back of his neck when he walked into one of the rooms. They're just so beautiful, they're amazing.
On working with director David Yates compared to Chris Columbus and Alfonso Cuarón:
He's very unassuming; they were in a way, Alfonso was, but he's fantastic. [David] is very into the emotional truth of it, the kids absolutely love it; he's very sweet and kind, and very, very into the story like a child is. And he's really into the emotional depths, and he's really fantastic, he's a lovely man.

I'm glad to hear that Yates, the new director is really into the movie like a kid is. The 4th movie was really good & hopefully the 5th can continue along those lines.

I have a eeling this movie is going to be much more emotional than the other four. The book certainly is very emotional and by the sound of the director he's going to emphasize that. I really hope he puts as much of the important parts of the book into it as possible. I also want it to be entertaining though. It's a lot to bear to be the director of a Potter film, so much is expected from you. I think the others have done a great job, and hopefully we wont be disapointed by this one. I can't wait for the movie to come out!

It seems like forever for this movie to be ready and I'm getting so impatient. We keep getting all these little bits of information that tease us and I don't know about you but it's frustrating.

I guess you would just have to have heard her, it doesn't make much sense here does it? I don't think many people really consider the, well, way they say things. Not many people are quotable and all that.
Silly of her, she should know how to say things beautifully, and in complete thoughts instead of broken ideas.

All I'm asking for is to be attached to the books, even though I admire Cuaron (Prizoner of Azkaban); the movie had nothing to do with the book.

Julie Walters is one of those characters that I really miss when they are not in an HP movie. It just goes to show that these movies are so deeply layered. There are so many levels of character and location that all blend together to make the whole that we all know and love.

So, if we read that, we can assume that Sirius' death will be drammatic and very emotional, like GOF I hope... I cried a lot with the come back to hogwarts scene with Harry, Dumbledore, Cedric and his father.
