HARRY POTTER WINS BIG AT NATIONAL MOVIE AWARDS

HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX was the big winners at London's National Movie Awards on Friday night (28Sep07), with the movie blockbuster taking home three gongs.

Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson at National Movie Awards held at the Royal Festival Hall. London, England - 28.09.07

The fifth installment of the boy wizard franchise was honoured as Best Family Movie, while the film's 18-year-old star, Daniel Radcliffe, was awarded for Best Male Performance - beating his co-star Rupert Grint.

The Best Female Performance award also went to a Harry Potter star - Emma Watson, 17, was praised for her role as Hermione Granger, taking home the gong ahead of Hollywood regulars Kirsten Dunst, Keira Knightley, Dame Judi Dench and James Bond star Eva Green.

But the latest 007 spy movie didn't lose out completely - Casino Royale was chosen over Die Hard 4.0 (also known as Live Free Or Die Hard) and Transformers to win the award for Best Action and Adventure, and the accolade for Special Recognition.

Other winners on the night included The Simpsons Movie, which won Best Animation, and British cop comedy Hot Fuzz, which was honoured as Best Comedy.

The inaugural National Movie Awards took place at the Royal Festival Hall and was also attended by Christian Slater, Dame Helen Mirren, Jamie Foxx and Mischa Barton.
