"Nowhere Is Safe"
— Official tagline

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 is the first instalment of a two-part film based on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling.

David Yates, who directed the preceding two films, is directing both parts, with Steve Kloves returning to script [1].The first part was released on November 19, 2010, with the second following in July 2011.[2] Production of the two films occurred concurrently,[3] and treated as if it were one film.[4] The idea to split the films had been around since the middle of 2007,[1] but only really came into serious consideration after producer David Heyman was able to talk to writer Steve Kloves when the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike ended and Heyman had Rowling's approval.[4]

On March 12, 2008, Warner Bros. additionally confirmed that the film would be split into two, to do justice to the book.[5] David Yates, director of Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince returned to direct and Steve Kloves wrote the screenplay. According to Warner Bros. executive Alan F. Horn it allowed "an extra hour and a half to celebrate what this franchise has been and do justice to all the words and ideas in the amazing story."[3] Heyman described the workings behind the split: "Deathly Hallows is so rich, the story so dense and there is so much that is resolved that, after discussing it with Rowling, we came to the conclusion that two parts were needed."[3] Due to the WGA strike, Kloves was not able to start work on the script until it ended.[6]

Before David Yates was officially chosen to direct the film, others had expressed an interest in the job. Alfonso Cuarón, director of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, had said that he would be "tempted" to return to direct.[7] Guillermo del Toro, who passed on Prisoner of Azkaban, had expressed interest in directing Deathly Hallows,[8] but an increased workload ruled him out of the project.[9]

Heyman noted that the films would be a closer recreation of the books than the previous films because of the length a two-part adaptation entails.[10] Daniel Radcliffe said: "This is a road movie, particularly in Part One of the film. People have been so used to seeing Harry Potter at Hogwarts and we're just not there for the first part of the film. That seems to have really freshened things up, and hopefully will get people seeing the films with fresh eyes again, because it's just a totally different look when you're not just sat in the same room the whole time."[10]

Although Yates had retained composer Nicholas Hooper for Half-Blood Prince, John Williams (who composed the scores to the first three films) had expressed interest in returning to score the film - however he did not state which part he would be contributing to. In January 2010, French composer Alexandre Desplat was confirmed to produce the score for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1. [11]

Yates and Heyman have noted that some of the events of this film had an effect on the way the sixth film was written.[12]

The first part ends as Lord Voldemort obtains the Elder Wand from Albus Dumbledore's tomb. [13] Interestingly, however, a number of media reviews of the film indicated that it ended with Harry, Hermione and Ron being captured by Bellatrix Lestrange.

In the wake of the success of the 3-D film Avatar in late 2009, Warner Bros. announced that both Deathly Hallows films will be converted to 3-D for showing in 3-D.[14] On October 9, 2010, it was announced that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 would not be released in 3-D because the film would not be complete before the release. It is possible it could be re-released in the near future as the conversion to 3-D has already begun.[15]

Synopsis

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and final adventure in the Harry Potter film series, is a motion picture event, told in two full-length parts.

Part 1 begins as Harry, Ron and Hermione set out on their perilous mission to track down and destroy the Horcruxes—the keys to Voldemort's immortality. On their own, without the guidance or protection of their professors, the three friends must now rely on one another more than ever. But there are Dark Forces in their midst that threaten to tear them apart.

Meanwhile, the Wizarding world has become a dangerous place for all enemies of the Dark Lord. The long-feared war has begun and Voldemort's Death Eaters seize control of the Ministry of Magic and even Hogwarts, terrorizing and arresting anyone who might oppose them. But the one prize they still seek is the one most valuable to Voldemort: Harry Potter. The Chosen One has become the hunted one as Voldemort's followers look for Harry with orders to bring him to the Dark Lord…alive.

Harry's only hope is to find the Horcruxes before Voldemort finds him. But as he searches for clues, he uncovers an old and almost forgotten tale—the legend of the Deathly Hallows. And if the legend turns out to be true, it could give Voldemort the ultimate power he seeks. Little does Harry know that his future has already been decided by his past when, on that fateful day, he became “the Boy Who Lived.” No longer just a boy, Harry Potter is drawing ever closer to the task for which he has been preparing since the day he first stepped into Hogwarts: the ultimate battle with Voldemort.

Plot

Part 1

In the summer of 1997, Rufus Scrimgeour, newly appointed Minister for Magic, addresses the magical world about Lord Voldemort's return to power, insisting that the Ministry remains strong and defiant in the wake of recent events. Meanwhile, Harry Potter watches quietly as the Dursleys pack up their car and leave him behind in their empty and abandoned house, waiting on the Order of the Phoenix. Similarly, Hermione Granger prepares herself for the journey ahead by wiping her parents' memories and removing all traces of her existence from the house. Ron Weasley also prepares himself for the journey, as he is seen standing outdoor the Burrow.

Concurrently, Severus Snape arrives at Malfoy Manor, where Lord Voldemort is holding a meeting of the Death Eaters. Snape takes his place among them and informs Voldemort of the date and time of Harry Potter's removal from 4 Privet Drive. While discussing their plans, Voldemort declares to his Death Eaters that he alone must be the one to kill Harry but that he requires another's wand to do the deed. Lord Voldemort chooses Lucius Malfoy in punishment for his failures, and Lucius reluctantly obliges. To test the new wand, Lord Voldemort toys with Charity Burbage, the former Muggle Studies professor at Hogwarts, whom he has bound and levitated before killing her.

Days later, several members of the Order of the Phoenix arrive at the Dursleys' to move Harry to the Burrow. Alastor Moody informs Harry that since they cannot Apparate or use the Floo network without alerting the Ministry of Magic, they must fly to the Burrow. Ronald Weasley, Hermione Granger, Fleur Delacour, Mundungus Fletcher, and Fred and George Weasley all volunteer to take Polyjuice Potion in order to disguise themselves as Harry, though Fletcher is reluctant. They hope that if the Death Eaters attack them in flight, they will not know which Harry Potter is the real one. Prior to leaving with Rubeus Hagrid aboard Sirius Black's motorbike, Harry releases Hedwig to fly and meet them at the Burrow. Upon lift-off, they are almost immediately set upon by a group of Death Eaters. A chase ensues with Hedwig joining the fight as she attacks a Death Eater who is pursuing Harry and Hagrid. However, she is hit with the Killing Curse. Having been revealed, Harry is then pursued by Voldemort himself. Desperately trying to escape, Harry's wand acts of its own accord and casts a spell at Voldemort precisely when Voldemort casts a Killing Curse. Harry's unintended spell overpowers Voldemort and destroys Lucius's wand. Voldemort is forced to remain behind, having been defeated again. Harry and Hagrid then pass through the protective enchantment surrounding the Burrow and land.

Having been betrayed the rest of the Order is on edge as they arrive. After Harry helps Remus Lupin carry the injured George Weasley, whose left ear has been cursed off, inside, Lupin rounds on Harry and confirms his identity at wand point. With each arrival relief spreads among the survivors. Eventually, Bill Weasley arrives and sadly informs the group that Mundungus Fletcher fled when he saw Voldemort, and that Mad-Eye Moody was killed. That night, awoken by dreams of Voldemort, Harry attempts to leave, feeling guilty that people have been injured for him. Ron manages to stop Harry and convinces him to stay long enough to see Bill and Fleur's wedding.

While setting up for the wedding, Rufus Scrimgeour arrives and meets with Harry, Ron, and Hermione, revealing that Albus Dumbledore left them several possessions in his will. To Ron, he left his deluminator, a device used to steal and return lights. To Hermione, Dumbledore left his copy of The Tales of Beedle the Bard, a series of wizarding children stories. To Harry, he left the Golden Snitch that Harry caught in his first Quidditch match and the Sword of Gryffindor, which Scrimgeour informs Harry that he cannot have, not only because it was not Dumbledore's to give, but it had gone missing.

At the Wedding of William Weasley and Fleur Delacour, Harry sits and talks with Elphias Doge, an elderly wizard and friend of Dumbledore's who wrote an obituary in The Daily Prophet about him. They are joined by Ron's Auntie Muriel, who suggests that Harry barely knew Dumbledore at all, telling him snippets of Dumbledore's strange past. This causes Harry much pain, as he believed he knew Dumbledore well. The wedding is interrupted by Kingsley Shacklebolt's Patronus which tells the merrymakers that the Minister Of Magic Rufus Scrimgeour has been killed, The Ministry had fallen and the Death Eaters approaching. Almost immediately, the Death Eaters arrive. In the confusion, Harry tries to protect Ginny, but Lupin orders him to leave. Harry grasps hands with Ron and Hermione, and the trio Apparate away, landing in Muggle London.

After changing, they go to a small coffee shop to discuss their next course of action, when they are suddenly attacked by two Death Eaters, disguised at city workers. The trio subdue Antonin Dolohov and Thorfinn Rowle in a brief but violent skirmish. Ron suggests killing them, but Harry decides it would be better to wipe their memories, which Hermione proceeds to do. The trio decide to go to 12 Grimmauld Place to hide. While there, they discover the identity of R.A.B, the mysterious person who allegedly stole the real locket of Slytherin that Voldemort had turned into a Horcrux. As it turns out, R.A.B. is actually Sirius Black's brother, Regulus Black. Kreacher, the resident house-elf of Grimmauld Place tells Harry, Hermione, and Ron that the real locket was in the house, but that it had been stolen by Mundungus Fletcher. Harry orders Kreacher to find Mundungus and bring him back.

At the Ministry of Magic many things are changing. Pius Thicknesse, an accomplice of the Death Eaters, has taken the position of Minister for Magic and decreed that all witches and wizards must be screened to determine their Blood status. Harry has also become the most wanted wizard in Britain, labelled "Undesirable No. 1." Meanwhile, Harry has a vision of Voldemort finding Gregorovich, a foreign wandmaker, whom he questions and tortures, before he executes him. Later, Kreacher returns to Grimmuald Place with Mundungus Fletcher, as does Dobby, a house-elf that Harry freed from the Malfoy family in his second year at Hogwarts. Mundungus tells the trio that he was forced to give the locket to a Ministry woman in order to save himself from being arrested for pawning without a licence. Upon further questioning, he reveals that the woman is none other than Dolores Umbridge.

The trio use Polyjuice Potion to take on the appearance of three Ministry officials and sneak into the Ministry to find Umbridge. They end up separated. Ron has to take care of an angry Yaxley, the Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement and a Death Eater, while Harry goes to Umbridge's office to search for the locket, and Hermione follows Umbridge to the courtroom where she is holding trials for Muggle-borns. In his search, Harry does not find the locket in Umbridge's office, though he is greatly saddened by the files in Umbridge's desk detailing the surveillance of his friends and their relatives. In the elevator, he meets up with Ron again. Together, they go down to the courtroom, where a large group of Dementors are being used to scare the Muggle-borns on trial into submission. Umbridge is interrogating, Mary Cattermole, the wife of the man that Ron is impersonating, Reginald Cattermole. Harry, in a fit of rage, attacks Umbridge, stunning her. He quickly retrieves the locket, and the trio along with Mrs. Cattermole evade the Dementors. The trio quickly escape from the Ministry with Yaxley on their tail.

Arriving in a forest, Harry and Hermione discover that Ron has been splinched, and while Hermione tends to his wounds, she tells Harry that they cannot return to Grimmauld Place. Yaxley had grabbed a hold of her as they Disapparated from the Ministry and was brought inside the Fidelius Charm when they arrived. After Ron is patched up, the trio attempt a variety of spells to destroy the Horcrux, but despite their best efforts and most destructive spells, the locket remains unscratched. They decide that they will search the countryside for more Horcruxes while taking turns wearing the locket. Soon, they realise that while wearing the locket, the wearer feels more angry, suspicious, fearful, and overall bad-tempered than normal. Ron is affected most particularly, and while wearing the locket he bitterly notices Harry and Hermione spending a lot of time together. They begin to listlessly wander the countryside, and one day while Harry is pondering the snitch Dumbledore left him, Hermione tells him that snitches have flesh memories. The snitch can remember which person caught it, and it can only open for that one person.

One night, Hermione comes to realise why Dumbledore left Harry Godric Gryffindor's Sword. She tells him that the sword is Goblin-made, meaning that it does not retain dust, dirt, or scratches, but it does imbibe any and all things that will make it stronger. As Harry had killed Salazar Slytherin's basilisk in his second year with the sword, the sword is now impregnated with basilisk venom, one of the few rare substances that can destroy a Horcrux. This revelation causes Ron, who was wearing the Locket, to snap. He screams at Harry, saying that Harry is taking them nowhere, and that he is free from worry, because he has no family. Ron storms off, leaving a flabbergasted Harry and a heartbroken Hermione behind.

Harry and Hermione Apparate from the camp-site the next day, leaving behind any chance that Ron can find them again. Hermione is heartbroken by Ron's departure, and Harry notices. One night, while listening to the radio, Harry invites Hermione to a friendly dance, hoping to lighten the mood. They both smile for the first time since Ron's departure, and when it is over, Harry briefly hesitates to let Hermione go. The following day, Harry is pondering the snitch once more, and it comes to him that he nearly swallowed the snitch in his first match. He then presses his lips to it and writing appears, saying "I open at the close." He shows it to Hermione, but they cannot make anything of the inscription. Nor can they make anything of the weird symbol Hermione found while perusing her copy of The Tales of Beedle the Bard.

Later, Harry proposes that they visit Godric's Hollow. Hermione agrees, because she believes that the Sword of Gryffindor may be hidden there, in the home of Bathilda Bagshot. They depart for Godric's Hollow, and upon arrival, Hermione suggests that they should have used Polyjuice Potion, but Harry flatly refuses. Hermione surmises that it is Christmas Eve, from the singing in the church. They pass into the graveyard, where Hermione discovers the symbol upon a grave labelled "Ignotus Peverell." She looks up to find Harry standing in front of his parents' grave. She comforts him and conjures a wreath of flowers for the grave.

The two then notice that they are being watched by someone who appears to be Bathilda Bagshot. She beckons them to follow her down the street. They pause when Harry passes the home of his parents, but once again, Bathilda beckons them on. Once at the house, Harry helps Bathilda light some matches and notices a picture. Recognising the boy in the photo, he questions Bathilda, but she does not answer. Soon, Bathilda goes upstairs, and Harry follows her, leaving Hermione to investigate downstairs. Hermione notices that Bathilda owns a copy of Rita Skeeter's new book The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore and takes it out of curiosity. Once upstairs, Bathilda finally speaks to Harry, but in Parseltongue. Harry responds, neither recognising the Parseltongue nor realising that he is falling into a trap. Bathilda's body falls away to reveal Nagini, and the snake attacks Harry. Hermione, hearing noises from upstairs and seeing blood running down the walls, comes upstairs to help. During a ferocious fight, Harry is bitten by the snake, but the two manage to escape.

Harry passes out following the events in Godric's Hollow. When he awakens, he is surprised to find himself deep in a forest. Hermione tells him that they are in the Forest of Dean, where she had visited once with her parents, musing that they would not recognise her any more and vainly proposing that she and Harry turn away from their destinies and grow old together in hiding. She also reveals to Harry that his wand had been destroyed in the fracas and that the picture he saw of a young man is in "The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore." The man is Gellert Grindelwald, a dark wizard from defeated in 1945 and a brief friend of Albus Dumbledore. That night, Harry sits outside on guard when a silver doe Patronus appears to him. He follows it to a small frozen pond, where it disappears. Investigating further, Harry discovers the Sword of Gryffindor is at the bottom of the pond. He strips down and dives in to retrieve it without removing the Locket. Sensing the Sword, the Locket tries to strangle Harry to prevent its destruction. Harry is saved by Ron, who also retrieves the Sword from the pool. Harry proceeds to open the Locket using Parseltongue, so Ron can destroy it. The locket tries to fight back by using fearful apparitions on Ron, including a large smoking monstrosity and spiders. Then these apparitions take the form of Harry and Hermione, who mock and humiliate Ron. When the Harry and Hermione apparitions share a passionate kiss, Ron, enraged, destroys the Horcrux.

They return to the tent, where Hermione grows increasingly angry at Ron for having the audacity to return. Harry and Hermione wonder how Ron found them, and he tells them that the Deluminator that Dumbledore left him allowed him to return. He says that a few days prior, he heard Hermione's voice coming from it, and he clicked it. A small blue light came out and went into his chest where his heart was, and he Apparated and arrived in time to see the silver doe.

Soon, Hermione proposes that they visit Xenophilius Lovegood saying that he could explain the mysterious symbol, which had again cropped up in The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore. Ron enthusiastically backs this plan attempting to get back into Hermione's good books. Out-voted, Harry agrees, and they Apparate to the Lovegood House. Mr. Lovegood reveals that it is the symbol of the Deathly Hallows. When he sees that they are not comprehending, he asks if they are familiar with the The Tale of the Three Brothers, and after Hermione reads the story aloud, he tells them about the Deathly Hallows which are revealed to be three incredibly powerful magical items in the story: the Elder Wand, a wand of immense power that is rumoured to be unbeatable; the Resurrection Stone, a stone that can bring back the spirits of those who have died; and the Cloak of Invisibility, which makes the wearer completely invisible. It is rumoured that the person who brings these three items together will become Master of Death. Revealing his perfidy, Xenophilius tries to turn the trio over to the Death Eaters as ransom for his daughter Luna Lovegood, who they have captured. The trio escape and Disapparate magically back to the forest, where a group of Snatchers are waiting to capture them. Hermione magically disfigures Harry's face so he is unrecognisable. They are captured and taken to Malfoy Manor in order to collect the price on Harry's head.

At Malfoy Manor, the Snatchers squabble with the Malfoy family for credit in the capture of Harry Potter. Lucius Malfoy nearly summons the Dark Lord, but he is stopped by his sister-in-law, Bellatrix Lestrange who spotted Godric Gryffindor's Sword. She orders Harry and Ron imprisoned in the cellar, where she has also imprisoned Luna Lovegood, the wandmaker Ollivander, and Griphook the Goblin; meanwhile, she tortures Hermione to try to find out how they acquired the Sword, which she had believed to be safe in her vault at Gringotts Wizarding Bank. Harry has another vision and sees Lord Voldemort interrogating Grindelwald at the wizarding prison, Nurmengard. Grindelwald tells him that as a result of a long ago duel, Dumbledore became the master of the Elder Wand, which Voldemort desperately seeks.

Harry, using a magical mirror his godfather Sirius Black gave him, sees another man's face staring back at him. He begs the person in the mirror for help, and Dobby then appears in the cellar. At Harry's request, Dobby Disapparates with Luna and Ollivander and returns to help Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Griphook. The group rescue Hermione with Dobby's help, but Bellatrix throws the dagger, with which she used to carve the word "Mudblood" into Hermione's arm, at Dobby as they Disapparate. Upon their arrival at their destination, Harry sees the knife in his friend's chest and tearfully cradles him in his arms as he dies. Harry gives Dobby a proper burial on the beach near Shell Cottage, the home of Bill and Fleur, where they have escaped to.

The films ends with Voldemort visiting Dumbledore's White Tomb on the islands near Hogwarts, breaking open the coffin and stealing the Elder Wand; triumphant he knows he is finally able to kill harry and unleashes a powerful curse into the sky.

Filming

"Years ago, we briefly — and seriously — considered doing Goblet of Fire as two films. So this concept is not altogether new. As for Deathly Hallows, I intuited — almost from the first moments I began reading it and certainly once I'd finished — that to realise the story in a single film was going to be a tall order. Others in 'the group' felt similarly. So the idea of two films began to get kicked around as early as late summer of 2007. We didn't take it lightly. But ultimately everyone felt that despite the challenges it would present, it was the most sound creative decision.
I'm sure some will think we're crazy. My wife looked at me cross-eyed when I first mentioned it. But I'm really excited about it because it should allow us to stretch a bit with the characters and give them the proper send-off. The story is highly emotional and those moments deserve time to breathe. And, personally, I feel we owe it to Jo — in order to preserve the integrity of the work — and the fans — for their loyalty all these years — to give them the best and most complete experience possible."[1]

Pre-production began on January 26, 2009, and filming began on February 19, 2009 at Leavesden Film Studios, where the previous six films had been shot, and Pinewood Studios.[16][17]

Eduardo Serra is the cinematographer.[18] Yates said that the film will be shot "with loads of hand-held cameras. I want to shake things up every time I go into this world. I like experimenting as we go along."[19]

During production at Leavesden, Radcliffe's stunt double David Holmes suffered a serious spinal injury during filming of an aerial sequence. Holmes fell to the ground following an explosion which was part of the stunt.[20][21][22][23] It is probable that the aerial sequence and explosion is the Battle over Little Whinging. This left Holmes paralysed from the waist down and it is reported he will be unable to ever walk again.[24]

Shooting schedule

David Heyman gave additional details on the filming schedule for the two films:
"We finished the sixth film which'll be coming out next summer and we start filming the seventh which we'll be breaking into two parts for a 54 week shoot starting in February (2009)."[25][26]

Test shoots were done on January 26, 2009 as Emma Watson revealed on her Official Website. [27][28] Unfortunately, just days later it was reported that a stunt double for Daniel Radcliffe was seriously injured while testing an explosion scene.[29]

Filming for both parts started officially on February 15, 2009[30] and ended on June 12, 2010. [31]

  • The scene where Hermione leaves home was shot in Hampstead Garden Suburb.

Special effects

  • For the Seven Potters sequence, Oliver Phelps mentioned on his twitter that a mixture of special effects[42] and makeup[43] has been used to make the actors' face look like Daniel Radcliffe, using a VFX MOVA facial capture scan with 29 cameras and UV make-up.[44]

The soundtrack

In January 2010, Alexandre Desplat was confirmed to produce the score for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1.[45] The French composer recorded the music in London studios with the London Symphony Orchestra.

«We will start this summer, it will take me all summer, I will not have many holidays, but again it's for good reason, for the soundtrack. I would take every opportunity to use the fabulous theme composed by John Williams, I'd say it has not sufficiently used in the latest films, so if I have the opportunity and if the footage allows me, I'm going to arrange it, to give it another meaning... Well, I have no obligation to use it but I shall make it with great honour and pleasure.» - Alexandre Desplat - Interview of the French composer by Cinézik.

The soundtrack was released on November 16, 2010 in U.K. and the U.S. [46]

Differences from the book

(Note: these differences are based upon the 2010 theatrical release; it remains to be seen whether future release of deleted scenes, or an extended version of the film, on DVD/Blu-ray might address some of these differences.)

  • Details of the Dursleys talking to Harry before leaving Privet Drive are omitted, and the Dursleys are briefly seen but without any spoken lines to Harry. Dudley does not show warmth towards Harry, nor does Petunia seem to. However, it had been filmed and is included as a deleted scene in the Blu Ray combo pack release.
  • The Dursleys appear to be leaving willingly, fully aware of their danger, rather than taken into magical protection by Dedalus and Hestia.
  • In the book, Snape arrives at Malfoy Manor accompanied by Yaxley with whom he has a brief conversation. In the film, Snape is alone. Yaxley is already in the meeting room when Snape enters.
  • The second breakout of Azkaban is not explicitly referred to in the film. However, Lucius Malfoy's physical condition has noticeably deteriorated, a likely reference to his imprisonment.
  • In the book, Yaxley places Pius Thicknesse under the Imperius Curse, giving the Death Eaters control over the Ministry. In the film, Pius Thicknesse is (presumably) not under the curse, but is a willing Death Eater or accomplice. However, he seems to be noticeably nervous before Voldemort and appears to be threatened and afraid of Nagini.
Draco witnessing death

Draco after witnessing Charity Burbage's death.

  • Voldemort does not taunt Bellatrix and Narcissa about Tonks's marriage to Remus Lupin.
  • Before Voldemort kills Charity Burbage, Draco seems to have some sympathy over her death.
  • The shard of glass in which Harry sees Aberforth Dumbledore's eye, though seen many times in the film, is never explained, as Sirius's two-way mirror was omitted from the previous films which caused the error in this film.
    Two-way mirror chard

    Harry using the two-way mirror chard to ask Aberforth Dumbledore for help.

  • Due to their omission from the previous films, Bill Weasley and Mundungus Fletcher introduce themselves to Harry when they arrive at Privet Drive.
  • Tonks' pregnancy is hinted at rather than dealt with explicitly, as she is interrupted by Moody before she can finish mentioning it.
  • There is no mention of Harry's Polyjuice Potion being gold-coloured or tasting better than other Polyjuice Potions. Instead, Moody warns those that haven't taken Polyjuice before that it "tastes like goblin piss".
  • Unlike in the book, in the film Harry doesn't give his hair for the Polyjuice Potion voluntarily but instead Hermione snatches it from the back of his head.
  • A chase scene between Hagrid and a Death Eater, taking place over a Muggle driveway and tunnel, is added to the Battle over Little Whinging.
  • Hedwig's death

    Hedwig taking a killing curse that was directed at Harry.

    Harry lets Hedwig fly around outside while he is alone at Privet Drive, and she returns while Harry and Hagrid are being pursued. She then blocks the Killing Curse a Death Eater casts at Harry, instead of being hit by a stray one. This also serves as Harry's give-away during the Battle over Little Whinging, instead of his use of the Disarming Charm on Stan Shunpike.
  • Due to Andromeda and Ted Tonks' omission from the film, the Order of the Phoenix all arrive at the Burrow instead of their respective safe-houses and Portkeys. The aftermath of the Burrow's burning in the previous film is not brought up, and the house appears undamaged.
  • Molly Weasley smiles at George's "holey" joke about losing an ear, instead of becoming even sadder.
  • The news of Moody's death is reduced to a statement by Bill. The group drinking and toasting to him is omitted.

The Wedding

  • A scene is added showing Harry attempting to leave the Burrow at night, but being stopped by Ron.
  • The days Harry, Ron and Hermione spend at the Burrow between their arrival there and the day of the wedding are largely omitted, including preparations for the wedding and for the Horcrux hunt.
  • Harry and Ginny
    Harry & Ginny kissing - Kitchen

    Harry and Ginny sharing a kiss before being interrupted by George Weasley.

    share a kiss in the Burrow's kitchen instead of Ginny's bedroom before being interrupted by George Weasley instead of Ron. It is also not mentioned that this was his birthday kiss to remind him of her if he meets a veela when "he's off doing whatever he's doing" but merely a normal kiss.
  • In the book, after Ron catches Harry and Ginny "snogging", he has a brief argument with Harry afterwards that Harry shouldn't get her, Ginny's, hopes up again after they broke up in the previous book. This was omitted from the film as Harry and Ginny never broke up in the previous film due to the fact that they never dated because they kissed "secretly" in the Room of Requirement instead of kissing in the Gryffindor common room in front of all of the Gryffindors.
  • Harry Potter is not disguised as "Barny Weasley" during the wedding.
    Harry in Bill and Fleur's wedding

    Harry in Bill and Fleur's wedding.

  • Olympe Maxime is present with Hagrid at the wedding.
  • While Viktor Krum, Gabrielle Delacour, Apolline Delacour, Monsieur Delacour and possibly Charlie Weasley are all present at the wedding, their roles are reduced to extras.
  • Hermione wears a red dress to the wedding as opposed to the lilac one she wears in the book.
  • The Patronus at the wedding is not identified as Kingsley Shacklebolt's, and appears as a ball of white light rather than a lynx.
  • When Death Eaters arrive at the wedding, Elphias Doge approaches Harry Potter and says a goodbye before fleeing.
  • Harry initially tries to assist Ginny in fighting a Death Eater at the wedding, before he is hurried by Lupin to flee with Ron and Hermione.
  • In the film, Harry, Ron and Hermione Apparated in Shaftesbury Avenue instead of Tottenham Court Road.
  • Harry's birthday party does not happen, as Hermione and Ginny had planned it to take place after the wedding.

Infiltration of the Ministry

  • A scene is added showing Death Eaters stopping and searching the Hogwarts Express. Their intentions are left ambiguous until explained by Xenophilius Lovegood much later in the film.
  • Cho Chang, Katie Bell, and Cormac McLaggen are all seen on the Hogwarts Express, even though they should have graduated the previous year.
  • The events of the new school year at Hogwarts, including the re-forming of Dumbledore's Army and Snape's position as Headmaster have been largely omitted, except for an announcement about the latter, and a scene where Harry observes Snape with the Marauder's Map and finds him in the Headmaster's office.
  • Lupin is not present at Grimmauld Place, and the large argument between he and Harry about the former's son is omitted.
Tumblr ldlct8Wzmg1qa5y45o1 500

Hermione teaching Ron how to play the piano.

  • A scene is added in Grimmauld Place where Hermione unsuccessfully attempts to teach Ron how to play the piano.
  • The tale of Regulus Black's death is omitted.
  • Kreacher is accompanied by Dobby when he returns to Harry with Mundungus Fletcher even though Dobby has been omitted in all of the previous films (except for the Chamber of Secrets).
    Dobby-Kreacher-Mundungus

    Dobby explaining to Harry how he met and helped Kreacher catch Mundungus.

  • Hermione never puts the portrait of Phineas Nigellus Black in her beaded bag as the portrait was omitted from existing in Grimmauld Place but was only seen in Dumbledore's study in the 5th movie.
  • Harry never remembers that the Slytherin locket has been in Grimmauld Place and they passed it around trying to open it while cleaning up Grimmauld Place in the 5th book because the cleaning up part has been omitted from the 5th movie.
  • Only Mafalda Hopkirk's ambush is shown, and Albert Runcorn and Reginald Cattermole appear to have been Stunned, as Mafalda was, rather than given Skiving Snackboxes.
  • Harry does not recover Moody's magical eye from Umbridge's door at the Ministry, nor does he appear to recognise it as Moody's.
  • Harry, Ron and Hermione have their disguises wear off at different times: Harry's wears off first, followed by Hermione's, then Ron's.
  • The man being dragged from Umbridge's courtroom does not claim to be related to Arkie Alderton, but another wizard.
  • While infiltrating the Ministry, the trio's voices do not change unlike their physical appearances, while the book made no mention of it. It does not, however, seem to draw any particular suspicion from the Ministry's employees. Their voices remaining the same stays consistent with the same change made to the second film, which Harry even made note of then.
  • A humourous scene is added where Ron, as Reginald, tries to leave Mary Cattermole so he can regroup with Harry and Hermione. Before she lets him go, she forces a kiss onto him, unaware that he is in fact Ron. Ron's Polyjuice Potion wears off at this point, and at the same time the real Reginald finds Mary and Ron kissing. Ron then leaves Reginald and a very confused Mary to regroup with Harry and Hermione.
  • Arthur Weasley is omitted from this scene, and does not threaten Harry, who is disguised as Albert Runcorn. This scene does appear as a deleted scene on the DVD, however.

Searching for the Sword of Gryffindor

  • All talk of Potterwatch and the difficulty in hearing it is omitted.
  • Though Dean Thomas, Ted Tonks, Dirk Cresswell and Gornuk do not appear, their names are mentioned on Ron's radio.
  • The existence of a copy of Godric Gryffindor's sword is not mentioned, though the part of Bellatrix Lestrange mentioning that the sword is supposed to be in her vault at Gringotts is oddly left in without any further details.
  • A scene is added where Hermione gives Harry a haircut.
  • A scene is added where Harry tries to cheer Hermione up after Ron's departure, by dancing with her on the song "O'Children" by Nick Cave.[277]
  • The details of Ron's temporary move to his brother Bill's place Shell Cottage after separating from Harry and Hermione have been omitted.
  • Harry and Hermione are not under the disguise of Polyjuice Potion when they venture into Godric's Hollow, though Hermione had considered doing so before Harry expressed his wish not to return to the place he was born as someone else.
  • Rita Skeeter's The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore serves little purpose in the film apart from helping Harry and Hermione identify Gellert Grindelwald.
  • In fact, very little of Albus Dumbledore's backstory is mentioned. At the wedding, Muriel mentions his father's attack on the three Muggle boys (saying that he killed them, as opposed to the book stating that he simply cursed them), and Elphias Doge mentions Aberforth. Percival, Kendra and Ariana are all seen in Bathilda Bagshot's photo album. Also, a young Albus appears alongside Grindelwald in both the photo album and The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore.
  • In the film, it is not mentioned that Bathilda Bagshot died and was reanimated into an Inferius. Her sudden transformation into Nagini is not explained.
  • In the film, Harry and Hermione know about Gregorovitch already, while it took a little bit more time for them to figure who he was in the book. This was due to Viktor Krum's omission from the film.
  • Riddle-Harry and Riddle-Hermione

    Riddle-Harry and Riddle-Hermione kissing apparently naked.

    In the film adaption, during the kiss between Riddle-Harry and Riddle-Hermione (in the vision the locket creates), the two appear to be naked.[278]
  • The scene where Voldemort murdered the German family is omitted. However, a newspaper close-up at the start of the film shows a report on a Muggle family being killed.
  • Voldemort does not kill Grindelwald. Also, Grindelwald willingly tells Voldemort that the Elder Wand is in Dumbledore's tomb, rather than telling him he never had it.
  • Hermione's telling of The Tale of the Three Brothers is accompanied by an animation displayed while she reads.
  • Though the Taboo on Voldemort's name is obviously in effect, as suggested by the Death Eaters' immediate arrival after Xenophilius says Voldemort's name, it is never explicitly mentioned in the film, and the trio do not seem to be aware of it although, Harry and Hermione referred to Voldemort as "You-Know-Who" even though Harry was never scared to say the name and Hermione stated in the 2nd film that "fear of the name only increases fear of the thing itself" and usually said the name. In a deleted scene on the DVD, Ron explains the Taboo while recovering from his Splinch injury.
  • The months between the visit to the Lovegood house and the trio's capture by Snatchers, in which Harry obsesses over the Deathly Hallows, are omitted; the trio are captured and taken to Malfoy Manor immediately after leaving the Lovegood house.
  • The scene where the trio enter Luna's room, and find her paintings of themselves, Ginny and Neville on her roof, are omitted.
  • The trio runs into the Snatchers after Apparating, rather than by the Taboo. Also, Scabior seems to be in charge, with Fenrir Greyback in a more supporting role, which is a reversal of the book.
  • A chase scene is added where the trio attempt to flee from the Snatchers after being found.

Battle at Malfoy Manor and the End of Part 1

  • In Malfoy Manor, Harry and Ron had a short duel with Draco and Narcissa before Bellatrix threatened to slit Hermione's throat with her knife.
    Hermione skimirish at malfoy manor

    Bellatrix threatening Harry and Ron to slit Hermione's throat.

  • Fenrir Greyback did not stay at Malfoy Manor, instead, he left with Scabior, and Lucius Malfoy took his place of being hit with the triple Stupefy spell.
  • A running gag in the Skirmish at Malfoy Manor where Lucius keeps on being hit by a jinx/spell, (first was when Ron bursts into the drawing room and second was the triple spell).
  • Wormtail is stunned by Dobby when he comes down to the cellars, instead of strangled by his own hand. Sources have stated he will not appear in Part 2, however, leading to the belief that Dobby killed Wormtail.
  • Wmplayer 2011-04-02 09-07-38-87

    Bellatrix engraved the word "Mudblood" on Hermione's arm using her knife.

    In the book, Bellatrix tortures Hermione with the Cruciatus Curse. In the film, she uses her knife to engrave the word "Mudblood" on her arm instead, and is not seen using the curse.
  • Dobby's death scene is longer and more dramatic in the film than in the book. In the book, he dies very shortly after arriving at Shell Cottage, only having enough life in him to mutter Harry's name one last time. In the film, he is able to talk to Harry properly, telling him that he is happy to be with his friends, and managing a weak smile before he dies.
  • As Ron did not mention Shell Cottage to Harry and Hermione, the origin and significance of the place are left unexplained.
  • Dobby is not buried in the yard of the Shell Cottage but instead, close to the Shell Cottage.
  • The scene where Harry, Ron, and Hermione eavesdrop on Dean Thomas, Griphook, Ted Tonks, and Gornuk is omitted.
  • The following characters have been omitted:

Deleted scenes

  1. Ron discusses about radios with Mr. Weasley in The Burrow's Shed (00:00:36);
  2. Harry and Aunt Petunia as they leave Privet Drive (00:00:47);
  3. Harry and Dudley shake hands (00:01:57);
  4. Death Eaters search the deserted Granger's house (00:00:23);
  5. In the Ministry of Magic lifts, Harry tells Arthur he's being tracked (00:01:44);
  6. The trio discuss how to destroy the locket (00:01:32);
  7. Harry and Ron try to catch a rabbit in the forest (00:01:22);
  8. Ron teaches Hermione how to skim stones (00:01:45)

Order of events in the film

  • Scrimgeour gives a speech to the Ministry.
  • Clips of Harry packing and the Dursleys leaving, Hermione modifying her parents memories and causing herself to disappear from the photographs, and Ron and the Weasleys preparing for the dangerous mission to get Harry.
  • The Death Eater meeting at Malfoy Manor (The Dark Lord Ascending)
  • Seven Potters.
  • Scrimgeour gives bequests to the trio.
  • The wedding and the ensuing attack.
  • Death Eater run-in inside café and escape to Grimmauld Place.
  • Discovery of R.A.B & Dobby and Kreacher bringing Mundungus to Harry.
  • Infiltration of the Ministry.
  • Camping sequences and Ron's departure.
  • Harry and Hermione's journey to Godric's Hollow and Nagini's attack.
  • The Silver Doe and Ron's return.
  • Destruction of the locket.
  • Visit to Xenophilius Lovegood, and arrival of the Death Eaters.
  • Disapparation and run-in with Snatchers, The Trio's capture.
  • Malfoy Manor scenes, rescue by Dobby.
  • Dobby's death.
  • Voldemort steals the Elder Wand from Dumbledore's tomb.

Mistakes

  • Before fleeing the wedding, Elphias Doge tells Harry that it was nice meeting him. Doge had already met Harry once before, as he was part of the Advance Guard in the fifth film.
  • When Dobby and Kreacher bring Mundungus Fletcher to Grimmauld Place, Dobby says how nice it is to see Ron again. This is a continuity error, however, as Dobby only appeared in the second film, in which he did not meet Ron. However, in the books, Ron has seen Dobby in the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh book.
  • In the scene where Bellatrix is about to torture Hermione, attempting to carve the word "Mudblood" into Hermione's arm; Bellatrix leans to Hermione's right arm. Although, the scene changes and it is shown that Bellatrix is leaning to Hermione's left arm.

Awards

  • Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 was nominated for the 83rd Academy Awards for Best Achievement in Art Direction (for Stuart Craig and Stephanie McMillan), and Best Achievement in Visual Effects.[279]

Behind the scenes

  • The DVD and Blu-Ray version of the film will be released on 11 April and it will include 56 minutes and 30 seconds of deleted scenes and featurettes. Also, the Blu-Ray will have a preview of Part 2.[280]
  • Part 1 runtime is confirmed to be 147 minutes (2 hours and 27 minutes).
  • This is the first Harry Potter film in which Maggie Smith, David Bradley, and Alfie Enoch do not appear as Minerva McGonagall, Argus Filch, and Dean Thomas respectively.
  • In the café where the trio was attacked, there is a poster for "Equus", a play Daniel Radcliffe was in, on the wall.
  • Nick Moran explained that some of his more violent scenes were edited down because according to David Heyman: "It was like watching "Saw"."[281]
  • Wormtail's death was replaced with him merely being stunned by Dobby since it was deemed too graphic for a man to kill himself, even if it wasn't his choice.
