JJPandy's reply:
No, it is not movie contamination.  Sorry, I don't have my books with 
me, but I remember being unsure of Quirrel's fate until in book 5, 
Harry and the gang were speculating on the new DADA teacher and Harry 
listed off the fates of the previous 4.  It was something like "one 
dead (must be referring to Quirrel), one memory erased (Lockhart), 
one fired (Lupin), one locked in a trunk (Moody)".  I know this is 
not exact and my apologies to those who want strict canon with page 
references.
