I liked almost everything about the movie, although I am consider- ably less enamored of magic wands, broomsticks and Quidditch than the kids. The computer-generated special effects are kept to a reasonable level, and they are quite amazing. The killer tree is terrifying, and the Dementors, who suck their victims’ souls, are nothing to sneeze at. Alfonso Cuaron is a much edgier, dark- er and deeper director than Chris Columbus, whose first two adaptations were far too faithful to the book and not inventive as films. Columbus, however, did shepherd the young lead actors — Daniel Radclife as Harry, Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley and Emma Watson as Hermione Granger — through their steep actors’ learning-curve. Bolstered by self-confi- dence, they can do more character-develop- ing, introspective work here. Returning to the smashing lineup of Hogwarts teachers from the other films are Robbie Coltrane as Rubeus Hagrid, who here has a pet Hippogriff named Buckbeak he uses in class, Alan Rickman as Professor Snape and Maggie Smith as Professor McGonagall. Michael Gambon steps in for the late Richard Harris as Headmaster Albus Dumbledore and makes the transi- tion feel painless. Devid Thewlis plays the complicated Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Remus Lupin. Emma Thompson is Professor Trelawney, who teaches Divination, has a trance scene that scares the pants off Harry and the audience as well. The new plotline centers around an escaped-from-Azkaban convict, Sirius Black (Gary Oldman), now thought to be after Harry. Peter Pettigrew (Timothy Spall) is also a new character, as is Pam Ferris as Harry’s Aunt Marge. Richard Griffiths returns as Uncle Vernon, Fiona Shaw is back as Aunt Petunia, and Tom Felton plays Harry’s arch enemy among the students, Draco Malfoy. Naturalistic performances by most of the students help raise the film above the whiz-kids level of the earlier films. Now we begin to see changes in how Hermione, the best witch of her generation, relates with her best friends, Ron and Harry. We see the very beginning of her awareness she may have to make a choice between them down the road. They’re all still just pals, but the hormone dance is beginning, and each of the three turns inward a little more as they grapple with their own evolving physicality and psychology. Cuaron's skills have illuminated this juncture in The Little Princess, which is one of the best film adaptations of all time. It is a complex, dark portrait of a young child left to work out her fate with no adult to help her, only the redemptive power of Harry, Ron and Hermione have exactly the opposite problem: how to get out from under the power of the magical and find a place in the real world of human nature. the imagination. Harry, Ron and Hermione have exactly the opposite problem: how to get out from under the power of the magi- cal and find a place in the real world of human nature. Cuaron has taken his charges down that path, and as moviegoers we must hope that the next director of the series understands where to take them next. I can heartily recommend Harry Potter 3, whatever your age. It’s one of the better movies of the season, and it’s playing at both Cinemark and Cinema World. ew
