Harry Potter - Book Series In Order

While Harry Potter can be viewed as a story about good vs. evil, its moral divisions are not absolute. [44] [45] First impressions of characters are often misleading. Harry assumes in the first book that Quirrell is on the side of good because he opposes Snape, who appears to be malicious; in reality, Quirrell is an agent of Voldemort, while Snape is loyal to Dumbledore. This pattern later recurs with Moody and Snape. [44] In Rowling's world, good and evil are choices rather than inherent attributes: second chances and the possibility of redemption are key themes of the series. [46] [47] This is reflected in Harry's self-doubts after learning his connections to Voldemort, such as Parseltongue; [46] and prominently in Snape's characterisation, which has been described as complex and multifaceted. [48] In some scholars' view, while Rowling's narrative appears on the surface to be about Harry, her focus may actually be on Snape's morality and character arc. [49] [50] WB Name Drops Big Titles".

In late 1997, film producer David Heyman's London offices received a copy of the first book in what would become Rowling's series of seven Harry Potter novels. The book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, was relegated to a low-priority bookshelf, where it was discovered by a secretary who read it and gave it to Heyman with a positive review. Consequently, Heyman, who had originally disliked "the rubbish title", read the book himself. Highly impressed by Rowling's work, he began the process that led to one of the most successful cinematic franchises of all time. [10]

One of the aims of the filmmakers from the beginning of production was to develop the maturity of the films. Chris Columbus stated, "We realised that these movies would get progressively darker. Again, we didn't know how dark but we realised that as the kids get older, the movies get a little edgier and darker." [32] This transpired with the succeeding three directors who would work on the series in the following years, with the films beginning to deal with issues such as death, betrayal, prejudice, and political corruption as the series developed narratively and thematically.

This extraordinary collection is a fantastic gift for all Harry Potter fans, young and old - sure to take pride of place on any bookshelf!Los Angeles Times writer Geoff Boucher, who conducted the above-mentioned interview with Heyman, added that the casting of the three major roles "is especially impressive in hindsight. The trio's selection was arguably one of the best show-business decisions over the past decade... they have shown admirable grace and steadiness in the face of teen superstardom." [10] [26] Production In Harry Potter, Rowling juxtaposes the extraordinary against the ordinary. [13] Her narrative features two worlds: a contemporary world inhabited by non-magical people called Muggles, and another featuring wizards. It differs from typical portal fantasy in that its magical elements stay grounded in the mundane. [14] Paintings move and talk; books bite readers; letters shout messages; and maps show live journeys, making the wizarding world both exotic and familiar. [13] [15] This blend of realistic and romantic elements extends to Rowling's characters. Their names are often onomatopoeic: Malfoy is difficult, Filch unpleasant and Lupin a werewolf. [16] [17] Harry is ordinary and relatable, with down-to-earth features such as wearing broken glasses; [18] the scholar Roni Natov terms him an "everychild". [19] These elements serve to highlight Harry when he is heroic, making him both an everyman and a fairytale hero. [18] [20] Pope on Desplat's HP7 Pt.1 Score". Snitchseeker.com. 28 August 2010.

The production started within a week after the release of the first film. Columbus was set to direct all entries in the series, [34] but he did not want to return for the third film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, claiming he was "burned out". [35] He moved to the position of producer, while Alfonso Cuarón was approached for the role of director. He was initially nervous about directing the instalment since he had not read any of the books or seen the films. After reading the series, he changed his mind and signed on to direct since he had immediately connected to the story. [36] David Yates directed four of the films in the series, including the two-part finale Deathly Hallows.
