Along with the character development and dark theme, The Sorcerer’s Stone and The Deathly Hallows differ in story complexity. In the first movie, what you see is what you get. The story is geared towards children so, there is very little symbolism or illusion. Most questions that a viewer might have while watching are answered by the end of the movie. In contrast, the last movie is full of symbolism and deeper meaning. This requires more critical thinking to fully understand which would be…

My first example is located in one of the film’s first couple of scenes, where Voldemort and his fellow Death Eaters are meeting to discuss plans, this is when Voldemort states that it is only him who can kill Harry and needs someone else’s wand to do this. During this meeting Voldemort begins playing with his “guest,” Charity Burbage, a professor who used to work at Hogwarts who studies Muggles, or people born into families that are non-magical and are not able to perform magic. This is where…

In this story, Papa's Parrot by Cynthia Rylant, Harry's relationship with his father changed throughout the years. In the beginning of the story Harry always went to the candy store that his dad owned every day and he really enjoyed going. When he turned seven, he didn't like candy or nuts anymore; "in spite of this, he and Mr. Tillian remained friends and were still friends the year Harry turned twelve" (Rylant 1). He still went to the store because he liked spending time with his dad. When…

In the dungeons began the first day of potion class. The dungeons were chilly and silent, would have been scary without pickled animals hanging in glass jars all around the walls. Like Professor Flitwick Professor Snape began the class with attendance and stopped at Harry's name mocking Harry as a "new-celebrity." Draco Malfoy and his friends Crabbe and Goyle giggled. He finished the roll call and faced up at the class. His eyes were jet black like Hagrid's, but he wasn't like Hagrid. They were…

life. What Makes This A Theory? J.K. Rowling doesn’t leave any stones unturned. However, she didn’t answer the question about how Horcruxes are made. Apparently, she won’t because the process is too horrid to be spoken about. Anyway, we know that Harry wasn’t intended to be a Horcrux. He became a Horcrux when Voldemort’s killing curse rebounded. The reason this is a theory is because of a single line of dialogue the Philosopher’s Stone film. “Yes. That ain't no ordinary cut on your forehead.…

with his family members, it created this sense of abandonment which pushed Harry to run away from home. This can be supported by the failure to achieve positively valued goals.

After a year, Harry returned home to be arrested and sent to “Chehalis State Training School for boys due to stealing stamps in an open safe at a post office…

“Draco,” Hermione said, “If we are going to move in together, I refuse to have an house-elf. Unless we are paying them, it is not happening.” Draco sighed and rubbed his temples. How many times would they have this conversation? How many times would he have to explain to her that it was far too difficult to find a house elf that wants money? “Hermione, we’ve gone over this. You’re being too emotional.” “So? There is no problem with me being emotional when I know that another living creature,…
