Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince (2009) - (Special) Movie Reaction Early Access/Full Watchalong

Comments

Fun facts: Hero Fiennes Tiffin who plays Tom Riddle/Voldemort at age 11 is Ralph Fiennes' nephew. Helen McCrory who plays Narcissa Malfoy, Draco's mum and Bellatrix' sister, was originally cast as Bellatrix in Order of the Phoenix but had to drop out due to her pregnancy. Not so fun: McCrory died of breast cancer on April 16th 2021, aged 52. She was married to fellow actor Damian Lewis at the time of her death. Dame Maggie Smith finished filming this movie while undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Talk about badass. Not so fun: Robert Knox, who played Marcus Belby (the kid from the Slug Club who ate a lot) was tragically stabbed to death when he intervened in a fight to protect his younger brother on May 24th 2008, just a few days after filming wrapped. His murderer was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum of 20 years before being considered for parole. Here are just a few of the differences between the book and the movie: There are a lot more memories of Tom Riddle that shows his upbringing and his family in the book. He also at one point returned to Hogwarts to ask to be the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. In the book, it is Tonks who finds Harry on the train after Draco attacks him, not Luna. The relationship between Tonks and Lupin is also expanded more. In the book, Harry and Ginny's first kiss was after a Quidditch game in front of everyone. In the movie, after Snape reveals himself as the Half Blood Prince, there is no further explanation. But in the book it is explained that Snape was a half-blood and his mother's maiden name was Prince, hence where he got the name. Hermione actually figures this out. Bellatrix is given a larger role in the movie. In the book she did not not attack the Burrow with Fenrir Greyback (that whole sequence is not in the book at all) and she is not among the Death Eaters who Draco smuggles into Hogwarts. In the book there is a long fight sequence between The Order of the Phoenix members and students vs. Death Eaters. Ron's oldest brother Bill Weasley's face becomes disfigured after he is bitten by Fenrir Greyback, but thankfully it wasn't a full moon so Bill didn't become a werewolf. He did however develop some wolfish tendencies such as liking very rare steaks. He and Fleur Delacour (from Beauxbatons who competed in the Triwizard Tournament) were engaged at this point. Dumbledore's funeral was cut from the movie, as well as all scenes with the Dursleys.
