That's always been one of the difficulties in the films. Clues are 
given but the narrative that makes them huge and important is 
missing and I think the film makers and screen writers try to keep 
important things in but connections are lost. Then the faithful 
audience of readers has to say "oh yeah!" rather than information 
being explicit. It seemed to be the worst with POA in the Shrieking 
Shack and when Harry saw the patronus on the lake. A few simple 
lines of dialogue added here and there could have made those scenes 
so much better connected to the narrative.
