Unlike the last chapter, there’s quite a bit from this one that gets portrayed in the film. There are many details that have been left out, though. One of the scenes here […]
Movie vs. Book – Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets – Chapter 8: The Deathday Party
We have finally arrived at a chapter that is (mostly) missing from the film. In a way, it’s a shame. The events that take place and the characters readers meet add richness […]
Movie vs. Book – Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets – Chapter 7: Mudbloods and Murmurs

Movie vs. Book – Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets – Chapter 1: The Worst Birthday
The second book in the Harry Potter series starts the same as the film; at the Dursley’s home in Surrey. Harry’s Uncle Vernon is annoyed by Harry’s owl, Hedwig. “You’ve forgotten the […]
