NOT trust or listen to Snape.

Carol responds:
I'd put "knows" in quotation marks there as I assume that Snape is
protecting Draco and trying to find out what he's doing in the film just as
in the book.

In both book and film Snape knows Draco is to kill DD, the how is the only
question. There are 2 scenes in the film where Harry states he doesn't trust
Snape and backs it up by stating that DD has made mistakes before. He hears
Snape very clearly tell Draco he's taken the Vow to protect him and Harry
knows the price to break that vow is death, so Harry knows at the tower that
Snape must first look after Malfoy or die himself. He also knows from the
conversation between Draco and DD that Draco must kill DD or die, so he
knows that Snape must make sure Draco succeeds or he will die from the vow.
EITHER WAY, HARRY KNOWS so it makes no sense that he listens to Snape or
stands there idly. The writer and director screwed up.
