Harry Potter’s most controversial movie still does one moment better than the books

The saying “never meet your heroes” has never applied to me more than when it comes to Harry Potter. As a kid, I floated along the series’ whimsy and matured alongside Harry, year by year. As an adult, I came to understand that J.K. Rowling’s worldviews clashed with the expectations I had formed from her early writing.

    I completely agree! Adaptations can really bring new dimensions to a story. In this case, the film’s portrayal of certain characters adds layers that the books only hint at, which can change how we perceive them entirely. It’s intriguing to see how these interpretations can influence our understanding of heroism.
