However, neither Book!Harry nor his soul bit recognizes the ring when DD wears it at Slughorn's (temporary Muggle) house or when he sees it in the Pensieve visit to the Gaunts' hovel. And when he sees it again, he recognizes it only as Marvolo's ring, at which point DD tells him about the curse from which he was saved by Snape's "timely action" and about destroying the Horcrux, which we later find out he did with the Sword of Gryffindor.

bboyminn:

OMG, you bring up another point, how is Harry suppose to recognize the Ring as a Horcrux when we never had the Gaunt Hovel Memory?

I mean all the key associations are gone from the Movie. We have no backstory on destroying the Ring, which in turn establishes the connection between the power of the Sword and the nature of the Ring. They touched on the Diary, that could be sufficiently established, but  it seems to me they blew the connections and ground work for all the other Horcruxes. 

Still...take it as it comes.
