[HPFGU-Movie] Finally saw it (no spoilers)

[Michelle Tague]

So sorry Carol.. It's affecting the nation. but I can't imagine how you
locals are feeling. just know that so many of our thoughts and prayers are
with you all.

 

Wishing we could erase the hate so many seem to feel about each other right
now.

I finally saw DH on Saturday. I couldn't find anyone to go with me, so I
went alone before the showings ended. Unfortunately, I came home to find
that real tragedy had struck half a mile from my home: the Safeway shootings
in Tucson.

I'm still in shock and praying for Gabrielle Giffords and the others, so
I'll keep my comments on the film short. I enjoyed it and thought that the
actors, director, screenwriter, etc. did a good job of keeping the film
understandable for those who hadn't read the books (with a few exceptions
that I'll discuss later) and paving the way for DH2. They did move some
scenes out of sequence but no harm done there. Yes, I noticed omissions and
alterations, but I understand why most of them were made, especially
simplifications like those made in the Godric's Hollow scene, which probably
benefited the viewers who hadn't seen the film and certainly tightened the
plot.

Carol, who will post again later when it feels more appropriate to talk
about HP
