Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Product Information

On Christmas, the trio use Polyjuice Potion brewed by Hermione to disguise themselves as Slytherin students, Vincent Crabbe (Jamie Waylett), Gregory Goyle (Josh Herman) and Millicent Bulstrode (Helen Stuart), hoping to learn from Malfoy the identity of the Heir. Unfortunately, the hair that Hermione took from Millicent Bulstrode's uniform was from a cat, and as the Polyjuice Potion is only intended for human transformations, she assumes a feline appearance, leaving Harry and Ron to ask information by themselves. At the Slytherin common room, they they learn that Malfoy does not know who the Heir of Slytherin is, but he inadvertently provides Harry and Ron with an important clue about the Chamber of Secrets that his father told him; a girl died when the Chamber was last opened fifty years ago. As the potion begins to wear off, the duo discover Hermione's feline appearance and that it would take a little more than a month to restore her to normal human form. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is a 2002 fantasy film directed by Chris Columbus from a screenplay by Steve Kloves, based on the 1998 novel of the same name by J. K. Rowling.

The film stars Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter, with Rupert Grint and Emma Watson as his best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger respectively.

Head for the best feature! "Tour Diagon Alley" allows you to do just that, poking your nose into shops not even seen in the film. You can move between shops easily and get a really good look at the set decoration. More material like this for the other sets would have been better than all the puzzle elements on the disc. This film is the second time a Gryffindor-Slytherin Quidditch match is seen and just like the first film Gryffindor wins.

Additional Scenes The efficiency of the scriptwriting is in evidence here, as most of these 19 deleted scenes are in fact shavings of existing material in the film, rather than complete exciting scenes. There's some more flying car material, though, and naughtiness with Dobby. There is no mention of Lucius Malfoy losing his position as a school governor as a result of his threats against his colleagues in the film. The basilisk in the book was described as a giant snake. However, the filmmakers added much more subtle characteristics of other reptiles such as monitor lizards. legless lizards, alligators, and crocodiles as well as adding osteoderms and other hard scales along with eyes with functional eyelids and earholes while maintaining its serpentine textures and characteristics, resulting in the film adaptation of the Basilisk taking on a more dragon-like appearance.

The Polyjuice Potion in the book changes colours as the hair is added. In the film, it does not change colours at all. In the book, after Fawkes had punctured the Basilisk's eyes, Riddle stated that it can still smell Harry. In the film, Riddle stated that it can hear him. This could explain Harry throwing the stone in the added scene of the Basilisk chasing him in the tunnel, so that when the blinded Basilisk heard the sound, it went towards where it heard the noise and believed that Harry might've been there. As Dobby's Bludger pursues Harry, he circles a stand decorated with the Slytherin Banner. It makes sense that Harry stops in the front of the stand, according to the last angle of the camera. The Bludger crashes and makes a hole in the front of the stand, but during the next shot, it shows the hole on the right side of the stand. Right after Harry and Ron crash into the platform, Ron's suitcase has three brown lines. Five shots later, it has two lines. Kennedy, Maev (2 November 2001). "Harry Potter and the gobbet of ire".
