March towards the dark

Soon after the film was released, I played an adaptation game launched by EA, and I knew the plot early in the morning. So it is entirely out of the responsibility to continue watching this series of movies. how to say? This time the director has changed to Alfonso Cuarón, the director who made "Same for Your Mother". Unexpectedly, he would actually make a film adapted from this children's novel, but the effect of the film is indeed different from the previous one, but it has been inherited from the second one.

I find that Harry in every episode will welcome a new teacher, and after the end, they are either Voldemort’s accomplices, a liar, or a wolf, and they have no good end.

This time, it was the same thing that made me uncomfortable, that is, "time". When Harry and Hermione were about to go back in time to save Sirius, the setting of the cycle always made me wonder, but how I didn't understand and couldn't tell, I just felt that the process seemed normal and abnormal.

In fact, watching this movie, to a large extent, is to see the new things in this magical world. The magic is still in it. One thing that makes me feel new this time is that there are a large number of panoramic shots. The director obviously wants to depict the world outside the magic academy. Surrounded by mountains, the lake is clear and bright, which is to paint a picture of such a fairyland for the viewer. In this film, the biggest impression is this. Especially the set of shots where Harry rode on a galloping eagle and horse, gave the most magnificent visual experience. (The saddest level in the game before is to ride the Eagle Horse to control it to fly between the sky and the earth. It takes a certain number of apertures to pass the level. And I haven’t been able to pass this after several times. Fortunately, it feels very good once.) And the "darkness" of the title is just based on the feature of this film.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban quotes

  • Hermione: [gazing at a crystal ball] Can I give it a try?

    Professor Trelawney: Yes, sure!

    Hermione: The grim. Possibly.

    Professor Trelawney: You know, my dear, the moment I looked into your eyes I knew that you did not have the mind for the noble art of Divination.

    [looking at her palm]

    Professor Trelawney: See? Right here. You may be young in years but the heart that beats beneath your bosom is as shriveled as an old maid's, your soul as dry as the pages of the books to which you so desperately cleave.

    [Hermione gets up and leaves, angrily]

    Professor Trelawney: Have I said something?

  • Sirius Black: Sorry about the bite, I reckon that twinges a bit.

    Ron: A bit? A bit? You almost tore my leg off!

    Sirius Black: I *was* going for the rat. Normally, I have a very sweet disposition as a dog. In fact, more than once, James suggested that I make the change permanent. The tail I could live with. But the fleas? They're murder.
