on this site and others the suggestion Remus comments on Lily are the
new bits indicating a romantic relationship.  I do not think this is
it.  JKR mentions intuition and Cuaron mentions hints from the books
as his source.  There are no hints about a relationship between Remus
and Lily.  Has anyone else noticed the double soul removal?  Any ideas?

Carol responds:
I don't know what the director et al. were thinking, but in the books,
sucking out the soul can only be done through a Dementor's kiss. It's
likely, then, that they were sucking out happiness (of which Harry
would have more than Sirius black) before the actual soul removal
(which theoretically would need to be authorized by Fudge). I think
the reason we see two streams of something coming from Harry in the
media which should not be named is that two Dementors are
simultaneously sucking out his happiness. I certainly hope that no
such incident in DH is being foreshadowed, and I can't imagine a
Dementor with his mouth to Harry's scar (or a cut from the reopened
wound) to suck out the soul bit. Spare me from such a scene, JKR!

Lupin's words relating to Lily's seeing the beauty in people who
couldn't see it themselves, though wholly uncanonical, could resemble
what JKR has in mind regarding Lily and Severus--not that she loved
him (she obviously had a crush on James) but she could have seen the
good in him as Sirius and James failed to do.

Just a thought. (BTW, the film has Lupin stepping in front of Harry's
Dementor Boggart and then saying that he tohought Harry's Boggart
would be Voldemort. It also fails to explain how Lupin knew that the
piece of parchment was a map. I wouldn't trust it as a guide to anything.)

Carol, apologizing to the List Elves for discussing the film but
hoping there's sufficient canon here to make the post acceptable on
this list
