It’s really stunning how the film covers all of the source material’s salient points and still has a relatively breakneck pace. They’d probably find some perspective if they watched Queen Of The Damned, or Catwoman, or any videogame movie ever made. I’ve said before, and will say again, some Harry Potter fans don’t know they’re born when it comes to this claim. Yates’ tenure, which lasts until the end of the series, is often criticised by Harry Potter fans for being rampantly unfaithful. So even where certain sequences or subplots may not literally be in the movie, I think they’re there in spirit.” But anything that we did lose, we tried to find a way to at least tip our hats or find another way of showing it. Of his adaptation process, Goldenberg told Wizard Universe in 2007, “You hate to lose anything, because it’s all great. At the same time, however, Goldenberg is very creative with his adaptation, unafraid to generate some new scenes from emotional beats that were delivered incrementally on the page, and rearrange the chronology of the story a little. It’s a deceptively simple approach, with a lot more of the film’s dialogue being recognisable straight from the book than in Kloves’ scripts. And yet, the overwhelming impression of watching it is that it’s quite extraordinarily faithful, if less longwinded than before.Ī savvy screenwriter might have, once again, excised the Dursleys and got straight into the political intrigue of the piece, but Goldenberg somehow finds a way to hit every base, as far as the important events of the book go, in the most concise way possible.

Goldenberg and Yates prune away most of the stuff that doesn’t connect to this journey, making for the second shortest running time of all the films. Harry’s reaction to this political repression is part of his main emotional journey in The Order Of The Phoenix. Her performance is fantastic, milking the banality of evil for all its worth and making for one of the Potter series’ more skin-crawling villains. “Progress,” Staunton simpers, “for the sake of progress, must be prohibited.” It begins with this brand of compassionate conservatism, before she gets behind closed doors and tells Harry that he knows he deserves to be punished. But it’s newcomer Imelda Staunton who really leads the charge, as Umbridge.
