Which would be an odd question to ask with respect to a *fantasy* film, in 
which she plays a girl with powers beyond those of mere muggles. :)

Was it?  The film was rated PG-13, not PG.  And the 10-year-old kids who 
bought the first Harry Potter book when it was brand new would have been 
20 when the film came out.  (Or, alternatively, the 10-year-olds who saw 
the first film when it was new would have been 16 when this film came 
out.  And then there is Harry's rather large adult fanbase.)
