> Carol replied:
> I don't want to boo you, silly boy. ...  At 1:33 (where you told us to pause this time), I see Hermione on the verge of tears (and who can blame her after all that snogging between Ron and Lavender)? I don't understand why you think that's "a picture that rolls a thousand eyes." Or maybe the version you're watching has a different timeframe?

Kemper now:
It deserves even more eye rolls.  Is there a movie in the series where she's not on the verge of tears?

> Carol again:
> I just rewatched with attention to the times and came up with five different Snape moments.... In the distance scene, I can see him holding out his wand and Harry flying head over heels. IOW, Snape has clearly followed Harry's advice to fight back--and I think movie audiences will see him the way Harry does, as a murdering traitor who attacked Harry. 

Kemper now:
Harry went 'flying head over heels' ('soaring backwards' in the book) after he attempted the nonverbal Levicorpus on Snape.    Whether this is due to the nonverbal being deflected in some way or an actual attack by Snape is not clear in the book.   My personal take is the deflection, powerful parry.
