I'd never thought about it in quite the way you put it, but you're so right--the movies didn't capture a lot of the incidental humor. In some cases it just didn't translate from the page, but in others--the costumes, parituclarly, as you say--they didn't work very hard at capturing the quirky humor in the books. Thanks for pointing that out! M.
