Anne Squires:

The scene you are referring to is in POA.  I tried searching for a
thread about this.  In this forum there are several discussions about
the POA film and it's dvd that mention this scene in passing. People
commenting on the acting, the camera angles, the fact that the bridge
hadn't been in the first two films, etc.  Some people liked the scene
and others didn't.  I couldn't find a thread discussing the fact that
it was an additional scene. (Well, some people mention in passing that
it's not in the book, but they don't really seem to discuss it.)

I tried to see if anything was ever discussed in the main group about
this topic.  Since JKR does an interview on the dvd I thought maybe
her interview could be considered canon. I keep getting a message that
the main group's search engine is busy.

I suggest trying the main group when their engine isn't busy.
