Alla:
But having said all that, I really don't share your liking of that 
scene. I mean I do not dislike it, because I could see how 
Dumbledore's reactions could be legitimately read as fear for Harry, 
I really do.

I thought the scene with Dumbledore shaking Harry rather out of place but then I reread a section towards the end of the Goblet of Fire that may have given rise to this out-of-place scene. It occurs when Dumbledore saves Harry from Moody/Barty Crouch Jr. Harry describes the scene as never seeing Dumbledore in this cold shaking manner before. I'll have to find the section again and post it. I'm wondering if this scene was an attempt to add in a piece of the non-calming Dumbledore that really is in the books. Just my two cents.
