Yes, you see it very clearly.  You also see her doing it to other kids, 
including all of Dumbledore's army, and you see Fred and George comforting 
a young boy whose name escapes me at the moment - he is crying after the 
torture.

I thought the movie was fantastic.  Quite a bit was missed, but what can we 
expect with such a long book.  For a change Australia got it before 
America, being that it is now Thursday here.

Regards,

                 Pauline
