Hands...

Good morning!
Somebody in this group recently brought up an interesting point and 
I had the same question...why does the COS movie underline so much 
what appears to be Harry's fascination with hands? Whether it be 
with the Hand of Glory, with Ginny, with Hermione or even with the 
Hufflepuff student who gets petrified next to Nick (Harry "plays" 
with the guy's fingertips). Someone must have been trying to draw 
attention to this in the movie because the hand touching ritual is 
filmed more than once in close-up...and it's been driving me nuts!
Also, I know I am being fussy, but why doesn't Harry shake Ginny 
when she is lying on the floor in the chamber? How natural is it for 
him to fall on his knees beside her and then not touch her (aside 
from her hand)?
I guess we'll never know for sure what the film makers had in mind, 
but I would like to know what other fans are thinking about this! Am 
I the only one who finds these things a little strange?

Who still thinks the HP movies are pretty fabulous as long as they 
are not compared too closely to the books!
