See it in full for the first time

The three little actors are so cute.

The movie 18 years ago was only watched in its entirety for the first time. When it was released, I was still in middle school. At that time, I had played many role-playing computer games. I was not unfamiliar with the setting of the wizarding world, but I was still very interested. But at that time, I didn't have much money and I didn't have the habit of going to the cinema. I missed it, so that when the next few movies came out, because I didn't think I had seen the first one, I didn't even want to watch it.

Later, it seemed to be on TV, and I watched the first paragraph of the first part. The plot showed that Hagrid took Harry to buy school supplies and asked Harry to pick the wand by himself, and he had "something to do". At that time, I felt that this Hagrid must be a hidden bad guy, and this was going to do something bad. I forgot what was the reason. That movie watching ended here, so I remember Hagrid was not a good person until after watching this time, I realized that "something to do" was to help Harry buy Hedwig. , Surprise.

Looking at it 18 years later, the mentality is no longer the interest in the magical world. Watching Harry walk out of his aunt's attic, go to Hogwarts to learn magic, and meet good friends who grew up with him, I am so happy for him. At the same time, I also envy him that he is lucky, has such a good talent, met such a good person, and achieved so many successes after so many adventures. This is probably the desire of every aggrieved child. The power from the magic world can help them drive away those oppression and unhappiness, and can take them to find their favorite life.

At the end of the film, the school was closed, and the students took the train home. Hermione asked Harry if it felt strange to be home?

Harry answered: I'm not going home, not really.

This is also the last line of the whole film. Harry was still smiling when he said it, thinking that he was no longer afraid of the place that had bothered him.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone quotes

  • [about the Bludgers]

    Oliver Wood: Nasty little buggers.

  • Hagrid: You all right there, Harry? You seem very quiet.

    Harry: He killed my parents, didn't he?

    [puts a hand to his scar]

    Harry: The one who gave me this?

    [Hagrid is silent]

    Harry: You know, Hagrid. I know you do.

    [Hagrid sighs and pushes his bowl aside]

    Hagrid: First - and understand this, Harry, 'cause it's very important - not all wizards are good. Some of them go bad. A few years ago there was one wizard that went as bad as you can go, and his name was V-

    [sighs]

    Hagrid: his name was V...

    Harry: Maybe if you wrote it down...

    Hagrid: Nah, I can't spell it. Alright

    [whispers]

    Hagrid: 'Voldemort'

    Harry: [loudly] Voldemort?

    Hagrid: Shhh! It was dark times, Harry, dark times. Voldemort started to gather some followers, brought 'em over to the dark side. Anyone who stood up to him ended up dead. Your parents fought against him, but nobody lived once he decided to kill them. Nobody... not one... 'cept you.

    Harry: Me? Voldemort tried to kill... ME?

    Hagrid: Yes. That ain't no ordinary cut on your forehead. A mark like that only comes from being touched by a curse, and an evil curse at that.

    Harry: What happened to Vol- to You-Know-Who?

    Hagrid: Well, some say he died. Codswallop in my opinion. Nope, I reckon he's still out there, too tired to carry on. But one thing's certain, something about you stumped him that night. That's why you're famous, Harry, that's why everybody knows your name. You're the boy who lived.
