Characters

Harry Altman

Many critics who reviewed Spellbound singled Altman out as its most interesting "character". Roger Ebert wrote that he "has so many eccentricities that he'd be comic relief in a teenage comedy... He screws his face up into so many shapes while trying to spell a word that it's a wonder the letters can find their way to the surface." He is currently as of October 2004 a senior at the Academy for Engineering and Design Technology http://www.bergen.org/aedt/ in Hackensack, New Jersey.
