The story

From page to screen.

The first Harry Potter film adapts the opening novel and establishes the screen version of the wizarding world: Hogwarts, Diagon Alley, the Great Hall, Quidditch and the contrast between Harry's ordinary childhood and his new magical life.

For Master4Game, this is the baseline screen adaptation. Later films change directors, tone and visual emphasis, but much of the imagery associated with the franchise begins here.
