he can't believe what just happened. Then he and Quirrell rush 
towards each other and Harry jams his hands onto Quirrell's face. He 
than pulls away and looks with horrified amazement at his hands 
again, still unable to understand the effect it is having on 
Quirrell. I think the book way was better when he just fainted and 
Voldemort killed Quirrell when abandoning him, but I don't think 
movie-Harr was a deliberate murderer.


Oh, I don't think Harry was a murderer either, and I agree with you 
that in the fighting scene Harry's reaction was perfectly normal. 
What bothered me is that in Harry and Dumbledore's conversation they 
failed to acknowledge that he killed somebody. If only Harry 
asked "Why" and "How" and let Dumbledore told him Quirrell only died 
because he intended to kill Harry (Lilly's protection only hurt 
people who want to hurt her son), I would be perfectly happy with 
that scene.

> On a slightly different subject, I didn't mind Harry having blue 
eyes particularly - I know the ideal boy would have had green eyes, 
but it's pretty difficult to find a black / dark brown haired boy 
with blue eyes instead of hazel or brown, let alone trying to find 
one with green eyes! If the lenses and special effects didn't work, 
so be it - it's still pretty close to the right colour!

I don't mind it either. Daniel has very expressive eyes, so "Harry-
like". Somebody pointed out that the green eyes may be very important 
for future books but I guess since JKR said nothing about this 
inconsistency, it's not as important as we thought. Maybe what is 
essential for the books is the fact that "Harry has his mother's 
eyes" instead of "Harry has green eyes". Lilly could have blue eyes 
for all I care.
