Hello:

I would like to apologize in advance for my english. English is not 
my mother tongue, 
but I hope I will not make many mistakes.

"Hatred rose in Harry such as he had never known before; he flung 
himself out from behind
the fountain and bellowed, `Crucio!'"

That is why I do not fully agree with Allie. I think that Harry 
actually meant to perform the cruciatus curse, the thing is that the 
result was not as effective as he thought it would be. IMO to cast an 
effective cruciatus curse, three "ingredients" are needed: skill, 
hatred and enjoynment.

No doubt that Harry was full of hatred when he casted the curse but 
he did not have the skill (it was his first unforgivable curse) and
I can´t imagine Harry having a great time while torturing someone, 
not even Bellatrix.

Uuumm, this makes me think that Harry was hit by the most 
excrutiatingly painful cruciatus curse ever
casted in the WW. I am talking about the graveyard in GoF...
