The end begins: Harry Potter's story so far
Friday, November 19, 2010
When "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" hit the big screen in 2001, no one was sure what to expect. Children and their parents had been enchanted by J.K. Rowling's magical books and expectations for the movie were high. For many, it didn't disappoint. The subsequent films in the series have taken on darker and more mature themes as Harry, Ron and Hermione faced growing danger and developing hormones. With "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1" opening today, SE Live looks back on the story so far. For those of you who weren't at the midnight showings, whip up some butterbeer and catch up with some old friends.
