Love her, too. She's very quirky and unconventional, but very sharp and aware, too. She was fantastic in Fight Club.

She is the perfect Bellatrix for Harry Potter. I don't do this with all the characters, but when I read HP, I picture Helena.

She was just sheer perfection as Bellatrix. If there was anything wrong with OoTP, it was that Helena wasn't in it more, IMO.

I don't know if anyone else notices, but there are certain actors who say their lines like they're singing, like every line is a piece of lyric and they deliver the line like it's part of a song.

It's much more noticeable if you watch a film without knowing the language. There were certain actors who, even if you didn't know the language, they perform their lines so beautifully that you want to learn the language just to be able to say the words like they do.

Helena is definitely one of those actors. Love her love her love her love her.

She's so cute. I love her floppy hat and coat.

She looks so comfy.

Even pregnant and grown-up, she looks like a street urchin to me, and it's not an insult. She's cool.

I was going to say she looks like she came out of Harry Potter central casting. But, somehow, it does work for her.

Helena Bonham Carter Has a Baby Girl

Helena Bonham Carter and her director beau Tim Burton have welcomed their second child, PEOPLE has learned exclusively.

The infant, born in London late Saturday, joins big brother Billy, who is 4.

"They are absolutely delighted they have a daughter," the actress's rep, Karon Maskill, tells PEOPLE. "It's a lovely Christmas present for the family."

Bonham Carter, 41, and Burton, 49, have had a busy time of late. Both were nominated for Golden Globe awards for Sweeney Todd – she for best actress, he for best director. In fact, they got that news while at the doctor's office.

"We were talking about inducing, and Tim got a call from his assistant," Bonham Carter told PEOPLE before the birth. "I do look like a globe, so it's kind of funny. I am very round."

She also joked that it was probably hard on the baby while in utero to listen to Mom learning how to sing for her role in the musical. "Maybe the baby's going to come out with his hands on his ears. 'Shut up!' " she laughed.

She added that the anticipation of meeting the new baby was intense. "I just can't wait," she said. "It's hard to imagine we can make anything other than Billy."
