Now that’s the way to make a book-to-movie adaptation. This really was the first HP movie that I loved. It captured all of the essence of the book (without all of the painful exposition), the magic, the helplessness as they tried to figure out what to do. It was poetic and melancholy and just perfect. I cried from the very first scene – stuff about how your life is changing and what you have to give up and sacrifice really touches my tear ducts right now.

Met a cute boy tonight who was a big Harry Potter fan too. That also made me happy. 😉
