SEATTLE -- By the end, I think I was starting to talk like Professor McGonagall. Or maybe Hagrid.
On a dark, stormy Thursday in late October, in anticipation of the opening of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part I," I watched all six "Harry Potter" movies back to back. A stunt, to be sure, but in my line of work there aren't too many opportunities for such things, and I've always wanted to be able to say that I do my own stunt work.

[Anthony Kennedy]'s evolution is only the most recent example of how a justice's views on capital punishment can be tempered over time.
