Differences And Methods Of Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows

The Harry Potter novels by J.K. Rowling are a well known and highly celebrated series. In the first novel, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, the audience is introduced to the main character, Harry. Harry is an embodiment of many common themes and devices in literature. However, Rowling manages to employ these literary tropes while creating a story entirely different from any other. The novel Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone provides an example of how to effectively utilize common literary motifs and archetypes without being cliché.

     The theme is, I think, that J.K. Rowling wanted to show was that good things can

The Harry Potter novels have action,drama,suspense,and a good story line.The readers feel fond of Harry when he was a little kid and when he’s an adult.The action is intense because when Harry and Voldemort battle

     There isn’t really a tone in the book. The author writes as if she was more informational. I think the book is actually a little bit suspenseful because when I read it I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next.

Vogler states, "[the] title is an important clue to the nature of the story and the writers attitude" (85).  In this piece, the title, "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," implies something beyond the realm of our physical world -- something much more supernatural and mystical. From the first chapter, the title serves as a distinct contrast to the world in which we see Harry live in; one that is completely normal, at least in the sense that there is nothing special about the Dursleys or Harry. Although Harry has a new room upstairs, he only has it because of the fear the Dursley’s feel for Harry’s magical abilities -- limiting him to never even say the “M” word. In fact, the Dursleys represent a sort of hatred towards Harry – “I WARNED YOU! I WILL NOT TOLERATE MENTION OF YOUR ABNORMALITY UNDER THIS ROOF!” (Rowling 2). Here, the “abnormality” Uncle Vernon is referring to is that of Harry’s ability for magic. While Harry is viewed as a legendary hero at Hogwarts, he is but a mere nuisance at the Dursley residence. By placing Harry into a position of clear contrast with his life at Hogwarts, Rowling has established a “baseline for comparison” of the Ordinary, Muggle-ridden, World, to that of the Special World (Vogler 87). This is a significant area of craftsmanship, as "writers [need] to make the Ordinary World as different as possible from the Special World, so audience and hero will

In terms of the five elements of drama, the plot of the film follows a young protagonist, Harry Potter who, upon realizing he is a wizard, is thrust into the magical, mystical world of wizardry as he attends the school of magic, Hogwarts. He meets a few friends and enemies there and he learns more and more about his past and his destiny to fight evil. The characters are: the protagonist, Harry Potter; his friends, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Dumbledore, and Hagrid; and his enemies, Voldemort and Draco Malfoy. The setting of the movie is current and it takes place in Hogwarts, a school of wizards. (imdb.com). The theme of the movie is good verses evil and the mood is mystical and magical.

The Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling has created quite a stir among public schools and churches. Some parents and ministers are afraid these books are teaching wizardry, witchcraft, and evil to their children, while others think they are books of harmless fantasy. There are two sides to this controversy, but I believe that these are just a way for kids to make-believe and imagine.

There is much controversy concerning whether or not Harry Potter should be allowed to participate, but Barty Crouch Sr., the head of the Department of International Magical Cooperation, eventually states, “The rules are absolute. The Goblet of Fire constitutes a binding magical contract. Mr. Potter has no choice.” Later, it is discovered that Barty Crouch Jr., disguised at Professor Moody, was the one who entered Harry Potter’s name into the Goblet of Fire. The three tasks involved in the Triwizard Tournament include: battling a dragon, rescuing a friend from merpeople, and navigating a maze.

The adventure of both characters, Alice and Harry, does not begin until they find themselves lost in a kingdom filled with magic, ambition and humor. The two novels to be examined are Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carrol and Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone (also known as Sorcerer’s Stone) written by J.K. Rowling. This paper will introduce and analyze two different journeys based off an imaginative world filled with allegorical elements. Therefore, the dissatisfaction with the real world or the need to belong is what Harry Potter and Alice needed in order to fit in with the real world they resided in. Hence, Carrol and Rowling may have possibly created these worlds through their imagination to openly visualize virtual fantasy

Low key lighting and odd camera angles are used in this part of the film while Harry searches for the Sorcerer’s stone and battles Voldemort. There is a slight horror aspect to the following scenes as Harry deals with the antagonist of the film, Voldemort. Horror is a genre that aims to create a sense of fear, panic, and dread for the audience. These films are often unsettling and rely on scaring the audience through a portrayal of their worst fears and nightmares. As we grow to love Harry and realize his biggest fear is the man who killed his parents and also him, and then are forced to watch him return this brings horror into the mix as a sub-genre.

Harry Potter has lots of differences between the movies and books. Even if they may appear similar on the surface, they are very dissimilar once you look beyond the outer similarities. The best movie/book to contrast is the first movie of the deathly hallows and the book, mainly because it has the greatest similarities between the book and the movies. The possible reason why the movie has the least amount of major differences is because, It was split into two parts which allowed it to remain more loyal to the original text. There are ten differences between them but there are some noticeable differences which do not contract very much from the overall quality of the movie.

Many people have watched the magical movies of Harry Potter, but, with the books being longer than the movies, how much magic was lost in translation? To answer this question, I want to go over what the bigger differences are between the films and movies. While the overall plot stayed the same, there were plenty of changes made for the movie adaptation which I believe made the books much better by comparison.

Have you ever read the Harry Potter series? I bade you to read the Harry Potter series. I have three reasons why you should read the novel, and they are: if you like magic, if you like wizards and witches, if you like suspense, then read the Harry Potter series. However, if you haven’t read the series, here is a brief description of the first book of the novel: “The Fantasy Novel, ‘Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone’, By J.K. Rowling is about a boy named Harry Potter who was a one year old that was left on the doorstep of his mother’s sister’s house, (Petunia Dursley). His Aunt and her husband, Vernon Dursley, accepted Harry. Eleven years later Harry Potter receives a letter from one of the best schools of Witchcraft and Wizardry named Hogwarts, a school for magic people. When Harry finds out he is a wizard, he sets off for Hogwarts, where he finds that he is very famous because of his lightning shaped scar and his great Quidditch skills. He also meets many kind people and his very first best friends, named Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger. Harry, Ron, and Hermione survive all the way to the end of the novel, where they discover that the Sorcerer’s Stone is about to be stolen, so Harry Ron, and Hermione try to save the stone. Finally Harry Potter alone reaches the stone where he meets the thief of the stone, the Dark Lord. There he most importantly finds a path he must take later in the series to overtake the Dark Lord, if he could survive his destiny.” After reading

Harry Potter is living in the ordinary world with his Aunt, Uncle and Cousin who treat him with very little respect. He begins to receive mysterious letters which are addressed explicitly to him. His aunt and

The movie adaptation of J.K Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is a very pivotal movie in the series. Like the book, this movie is crucial in setting up an understanding for the rest of the series. Therefore it is important that the movie complements the novel as much as possible. Using one of the most essential features of a movie; visual imagery, the movie adaptation of the fourth novel is a good accompaniment for the novel. The visual imagery in this movie emphasizes emotions and reactions that we cannot possibly obtain from the book. For example, the death of Cedric Diggory at the end of the movie strikes a powerful emotional response as a result of his father, Amos Diggory’s grief. Seeing him cry makes the audience more
