Time passing

2000

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone


2011
The Woman in Black*



Sorta like watching a boy you know grow up.

There was something about the little guy in 2001 that reminded me of a departed friend of mine who died of AIDS in 1988. I sort of imprinted the one on the other, I guess, so I've had a certain affection for Harry/Daniel ever since.



*This was a novel, then a play --2nd longest running one in England. This adaptation fiddles with the story. Radcliffe spends most of the flick alone, wandering. Beautifully filmed, but not a great vehicle.
