Overview of the story
In his third summer vacation at Hogwarts School of witchcraft and Wizardry, Harry went to watch the exciting Quidditch World Cup with his good friends Ron's family and Hermione. However, on the night of the end of the game, the dark mark that had disappeared for 13 years appeared over the camp. At the same time, the scar on Harry's forehead left by the mysterious man 13 years ago was also in frequent pain. It all indicates that something unusual is happening or is about to happen.
At the opening ceremony, headmaster Dumbledore announced major news that the top three competition, which has been interrupted for more than 100 years, will be held in Hogwarts this year. At that time, a magic Goblet of fire will select one warrior from each of the three largest magic schools in Europe to compete in three events, and the winner will win the top three trophies. As the competition is full of danger, according to the regulations, only students over the age of 17 are eligible to enter.
But the accident happened. After the Goblet of fire selected three warriors representing the three schools, the name of the fourth warrior, Harry Potter, came out. Everyone thinks that this is a huge conspiracy. The wizard who can cross the age line set by the headmaster and put Harry's name into the Goblet of Fire is sure to kill Harry by taking advantage of the thrilling and arduous competition project of the top three competitors. This man is hidden in Hogwarts.
Although Harry is upset about this, Hogwarts' life is still desirable. Moody, the new defense against the dark arts teacher, used to be famous. He even demonstrated three unforgivable charms in class. All the students admired and feared him. Qiu Zhang, the seeker of the Quidditch team at Ravenclaw college, is a beautiful oriental girl. She makes Harry's heart flutter, but it seems that she has already loved him, which makes Harry's dim vision suffer a little frustration.
The top three competition has started, and every project seems impossible to complete. However, whenever Harry feels desperate, there will always be someone to remind him and help him, so that Harry can cross the border. Harry's excellent performance convinced everyone that he would definitely win the last three cups, but the man who wanted to kill Harry by the dangerous Magic game was wrong. But at the end of the game, Cedric, who was tied with Harry for the championship, lost his life.
No one expected that behind all this, there was a shocking black magic plot brewing.
Journey of the hero
The main line of the story is that Hogwarts is holding the top three competition, but Harry Potter, who was not old enough to participate in the competition, unexpectedly joined the queue of the top three competitors.
Before the first round, Ron and Hermione told Harry about the dragon, which helped him win the game and get the golden egg; In addition, Sirius told Harry Potter that Hogwarts is not safe. Someone wants to kill him secretly, such as Voldemort. When Harry told Cedric what he knew about the first competition, Cedric also continued to carry forward Libra's pursuit of fairness and harmony, suggesting the decryption method of Harry's second project, to achieve fair competition.
In the prefect's bathroom, she showed an old-fashioned picture of a beautiful mermaid; Then, under the water, she revealed a small village where a group of terrible creatures lived. They had long dark green hair, iron-gray skin, yellow teeth , and gloomy faces. This is quite different from what people imagine Harry will see at the bottom of the lake. They are not what readers imagine, because even myths and legends should have their own secrets.
Although Harry is often misled, as a person who is gradually understanding the magic world, he also has his own ideas about what things should be like. The same is true of mad eye moody, who was one of Harry's favorite teachers before he revealed that he was the biggest villain and that he sent Harry directly into Voldemort's clutches. And Snape proved himself innocent. But there are other signs that this is not the case. Almost everything in the book is not as simple as the appearance, which teaches readers not to rush to conclusions, but to slowly collect information and be ready to expect unexpected things.
I would like to mention Cedric. In the third project, he saw that he was the first to win the trophy, but unfortunately, he was entangled by a giant spider. When Harry helped him get rid of a giant spider, he thought that Harry was the final winner, so he "used all his perseverance" to let Harry win the trophy and gave up "the honor that Hufflepuff Academy has not won in hundreds of years". The trophy was replaced with a door key, and they have dragged to the riddle Hangleton cemetery, where Peter, the dwarf, who had been waiting for a long time, killed Cedric cruelly.
Lord Voldemort
Voldemort is known as "the most dangerous black wizard in history", and most people dare not call him by his first name. Moreover, this name was even protected by Death Eaters' incantations in the later stage. Once someone said it, it would break the magic barrier, cause a disturbance, and facilitate the tracking of Death Eaters. People usually call him you know who, he who must not be named, or the Dark Lord.
Harry and Voldemort are two sides of one, and the film also shows the different life trends brought by their different growing environment. In this way, Voldemort's evil is at least rule-based and three-dimensional.
However, a good villain, if not strong personality charm, can not attract loyal generals, alone can not be equal to Hogwarts. When Dumbledore died, the school was suddenly dark and solemn, and Harry sacrificed his life for him, which shows his respect ; Voldemort's mansion is about to collapse, and Lucius's family is running away in a hurry. Whether it's the grass on the wall or not, even the love general who has been with him for many years is not a dead man. The charm of his personality can be seen.
My questions
The door key can only work at a set time in advance, which has been proved in many plots of the original work. In contrast to the situation in the Goblet of fire, the setting of the Goblet of fire as the key to the door is full of doubts.
The Goblet of fire is placed in the middle of the maze, and the competitors have to break through many obstacles to get it. As a backstage manipulator, how does fake moody determine the exact time when Harry Potter finally gets the Goblet of fire?
It turns out that a lot of things that happened in the maze (such as Harry's rescue of Diggory) were unexpected by the fake moody, so the fake Moody's schedule must have been disrupted. It is repeatedly stressed in the book that this is a well -planned and safe plot, but the key factor that determines the success or failure depends entirely on luck, which is obviously untenable.
What's more surprising is that Harry Potter took the Goblet of fire with the flying charm and returned to the campus with Digory's body. There's a bigger question: why is the Goblet of fire still a door key? In principle, once it is used at the set time point, it will lose the function of the door key. If Harry Potter's coming to the cemetery through the Goblet of Fire is pure luck, it's totally inconceivable that he will use the Goblet of fire to escape from the cemetery again.
Summary
I really want to ask, does Harry Potter really belong to children's literature in the beginning.
The theme of these films is about the relationship between human beings and "alien-human groups", and so is Harry Potter, which runs through the proposition of the relationship between Muggles and magicians from beginning to end. If Harry Potter can also be an in-depth discussion of the coexistence between groups, it is sure that the values of the Dark Lord can be more completely presented.
It can be said that the hero image of Harry Potter in this work is shaped little by little. He has experienced countless turns and thresholds and finally approached the truth. I didn't like the story of raising heroes, but after watching this work, I became very interested in Harry Potter, so I watched all the related movies. What I think is very interesting is that a film can slightly change my view of a series of films, or a series of heroic legends. I think this work is successful .
In fact, I prefer The Hero With a Thousand Face . I think the hero images described in this book can resonate with me more. Everyone has a time when he or she dreams of becoming a hero and saving the world. I feel that this book and this film make me feel like a child.
