I agree with you that Gringotts (or the preparations for the robbery) is the place to start the film, but it would be more like 2.4 hours rather than 24, so the action would have to take place ten times as fast, with most of the waiting removed. The Gringotts sequence and the Snape memories (some of the eliminated, alas) could be filmed in real-time, along with some of the battle sequences. I think it will *feel* like real time, regardless, because of the rush of events with no sense of days or seasons passing (no Whomping willow shedding its leaves or shaking off snow, no Christmas decorations, only one sunrise-to-sunrise "day." (For symbolic reasons, the battle with Voldemort *must* be won as the sun rises on a new day for Harry, Hogwarts, and the WW.) I think that whatever exposition we get will occur as HRH and Griphook prepare for the Gringotts break-in, as HRH encounter Neville and the DA, and as Harry talks with Dead!Dumbledore in King's Cross. And I think that the audience will actually appreciate those few breathers, both because they need a brief break from action and suspense and because they'll want to know as badly as Harry does what's going at Hogwarts and how DD could "betray" Harry to his (seeming) death. I think that the film audience will enjoy seeing the old twinkly Dumbledore again, too. (They won't feel the anger toward him that many readers do.) At any rate, I expect that the second DH film will be the easiest film to write a script for and to structure and edit because the sequence, at least, is almost cut and dried and very little can be left out. The dialogue would take about the same time to film (ignoring retakes and all that) as it would take to read the dialogue in the book aloud. The action might take less time to *show* than it would to film (though of course the filmmakers have more leeway there. I suspect, for example, that they'll actually show Lupin duelling Dolohov and being killed (though they may not actually name Dolohov) instead of having Harry see his body lying on a table. Even the first half of DH, though lots of time passes when nothing is happening, can be filmed more or less in a chronological sequence. Except for the DE meeting, the excursions into Voldemort's mind, the Kreacher flashback, and whatever they choose to include of the Dumbledore mystery, the sequence is much more linear than in the other books--Seven Potters to Weasleys' house to wedding to Tottenham Court Road to 12 GP to the Mom and so forth, with no classes or homework or detentions or DA meetings or snog sessions or subplots (other than the occasional references to Snape to keep him just below the surface of our minds). HBP, I think, must have been much harder to transform into a film. I'm actually looking forward to it even more than I am to the two parts of DH. I expect to see all sorts of references to the villainous Severus Snape from viewers who aren't in on the secret. Or is it humanly possible to have escaped all the references to DH, the book, and still not know how it all ends?

I would agree with the above except I would not use quotation marks, in the book I think Dumbledore did betray Harry, he did so for a very good cause but it was a betrayal nevertheless.

I still think Dumbledore is basically a good man, but that that bit about the strings makes me think there is a little Don Vito Corleone in him.

Carol responds: That's exactly what I think, too, which is why I put "betray" in quotation marks. Dumbledore knew what he could not tell Snape because, as you say, Harry must not know it or his sacrifice would not be a sacrifice, that Harry, thanks to the drop of shared blood, was likely to survive the AK, which would destroy the soul bit but not Harry himself if he died without fighting back and if Voldemort and no one else cast the AK. (Dumbledore is very emphatic on that last point while the second one is implied in allowing himself to be killed.) But I understand Eggplant's point of view and why he prefers a morally ambiguous Dumbledore even though I disagree that it was a real rather than a seeming betrayal (I think it parallels Snape's seeming betrayal of Dumbledore). At any rate, I wouldn't want to be in Dumbledore's place, having to balance the greater good against individual good, whether the individual is Harry or the nameless people who may be killed as long as Horcrux!Harry, and therefore Voldemort, lives.

In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Given the contempt Dumbledore seemed to show Snape when he expressed reservations about leading Harry to slaughter like a pig I think the most natural interpretation is that Dumbledore had resigned himself that Harry must die regrettable though that was. However I admit there is noting in the book that would flat out exclude the possibility that he knew Harry would live if that's how you want to look at it; even though it might then be difficult to explain the "flaw in the plan" business. I hope the movie preserves this ambiguity, I certainly don't want a scene where Dumbledore says "Ha Ha I knew you would live from day one". Give the fans something to argue about!

My 20 year old daughter & I went to see Equus this past Wednesday. Simply stunning! What a fabulous, powerful, emotional, even funny at times show. It reminded me why I love the theater so much. Superb. Dan was excellent, they all were really. I was so impressed by all of the performances. You could feel Dan & Richard Griffiths rapport on stage. Some very funny scenes together; but were still as dramatic as they were meant to be. Magical. We had great seats, 4th row from the stage and the Broadhurst theater is pretty small, very cozy and inviting. As Dan & Mr. Griffiths looked out into the audience sometimes, their eyes really connected with some members, myself included. It felt amazing. It was an experience my daughter & I will never forget. Unfortunately we weren't able to get close enough to the stagedoor to get an autograph from Dan; but I did get one from Mr. Griffiths and was able to tell him how wonderful I thought his performance was. Very gracious man. By the way, as I'm sure you can all recall, that photo of Dan & the horse that came out two years ago when he was doing the London show, was a total fake. Dan has grown into a fine young man. I did feel quite sad for him though, as he lost his grandmother recently and is still doing the shows. A true professional. Any questions? I'll be happy to answer... I hope you all have enjoyed this little personal review.

I bought the tickets direct from the play offering through telecharge.com. That's where they have the seat prices. We paid $150 for our Orchestra seats but we were dead center in full view and it was worth every penny we paid for. The play is fabulous. We were at the 2:00 matinee showing on Wednesday. We went back that night (due to rumors) to see if we can see Dan after the night performance. It turns out sometimes he does and sometimes he doesn't and we got lucky that he did. Usually it's gated off on both sides of the stage doors right outside the Broadhurst theater. Most imporant thing to know...if he does come out, be SURE to hold on to your theatre ticket for that day. Dan will sign autographs but mostly for the ticket holders who saw the play on the same day. He will occassionally go to the other side for a few autographs and pics but it's very short. He was very sweet, very gracious, even after doing two shows each day. I hope you do get the chance to meet him. He's wonderful.

There is a new trailer available for HBP, and it gives much mroe sense of the movie than the first one, with a wide variety of scenes involving many characters. Sandy: Thank you Zara! I really like this one. It's a bit cruel, though, to see this and know the movie release is still almost nine months away. After they postponed the release I said I would just wait for the DVD but after seeing this trailer, I dunno, I just might have queue up on opening night.

Carol: You mean after all my posts on tinyurls, you guys aren't converts yet? Try this one: http://tinyurl.com/59jrkt Anyway, that's Yahoomort for you--I don't think it embeds URLs, but cut-and-pasted links usually work, even long ones sometimes. But try the tinyurl. If it doesn't work, I'll shut up about it. How about some reactions to the trailer itself? Snape sweeping through the Great Hall with the DEs behind him (they got Bellatrix in there even though she wasn't in that part of the book--I suppose they wanted a bit of meoldrama). "Fight back, you coward!" The Half-blood Prince will have key scenes in his own book! Interesting that Dumbledore talks about the cave as Dark and powerful magic that he hasn't seen before instead of seeming actually disappointed at its crudeness. I suppose its like the One Ring in the LOTR films--the filmmakers want Voldie to seem more dangerous and sinister than he does in the books. Great opening shots of the sea and the cave. They chose the location well.

The Half-blood Prince > will have key scenes in his own book! > MusicalBetsy here: I was so happy to hear that line - I can't wait to see the whole dual between Harry and Snape. But I must admit I LOVED that last part with Hermione - how hilarious. I know, it's not canon, but it was so true to what a teenager would say. And, uh, yeah, the girl was really cute.... I wish they would hint a little more about Harry and Ginny's budding relationship, as they did with Ron and Lavender - even if it was just some "look" between the two of them. Oh, well, I guess I'll just have to wait!

Do you mean Hermione or the girl who was smiling at Harry :-)? I thought it must be Romilda Vane :-). Funny thing, when I watched the trailer for the first time, it seemed to me that she had a laptop on the table, and I went "what??!" Then I watched it again and realized that it was just a large book propped in front of her, LOL! zanooda
