I am new here. If this has been picked over, I apologize. 

I recently reread CoS and watched the movie right after. Columbus 
made some interesting 'adjustments' to the Chamber scene.

He toned down what's described as Ginny's wailing when she wakes up. 
She's really calm in the movie. It's quite a little Harry/Ginny 
moment that Columbus created, and it's not canon.

In the book Harry thanks Fawkes and is healed before Ginny wakes up.  
In the movie, Harry heroically tells Ginny to go find Ron without him 
and is healed by the Phoenix with her watching.

Finally, when Fawkes is flying out of the Chamber at the end, in the 
movie Harry is holding Ginny. In the book, they are all holding hands 
in a chain.

Do you think the movie makers are anticipating a Harry / Ginny 
relationship?

It's just such a big difference from the books I was wondering what 
you all thought.
