I too paid careful attention to this moment in my latter viewings of
the film because it was so confusing. The camera starts out on Snape
at that point, and Crouch's sight line appears to be directed toward
Snape as well, or at least at the beginning of the line. But then the
focus shifts to Harry, due to Dumbledore's yanking Harry's arm into
the shot and the camera's shift to the right. Poor directing? Poor
editing? At any rate, it is quite ambiguous.
