While i have always imagined Lily and James looking much younger  
than the two actors they picked to play the parts -- i truly loved 
the  moving photograph -- in fact the whole scene resonated well for 
me.   Particularly Dan Radcliffe's acting as he stomps up the stairs 
and kicks  his trunk -- that boy certainly seems to have warmed up 
his acting chops  in this film.

my two cents,

Yes, that scene rings SO true!!  And I LOVED him sitting  there in an 
absolute rage yet the heartbreak showed too, in his glance at the  picture of his 
parents dancing gaily in the falling leaves.  What I DON'T  get is why they 
didn't get a man who's the right age to be James Potter and has  thick, messy dark 
hair, heavy eyebrows and a slight dimple in his chin, so  he looks like Dan!  
The hair is the biggest thing -- James' hair has never  looked like he could 
be at all related to Harry, whether it was the  "neater-haired" Harry of SS and 
CoS or the more appropriately messy-haired Harry  of PoA (and didn't they do 
a great job with his hair this time!  THAT's the  Harry I've been picturing 
all along!)
