Harry Potter and the Philosopher's① Stone (2001)
What an amazing film! Who has not dreamt of finding out that he or she is really someone special and famous? That fantasy② is reality for Harry Potter (played by Daniel Radcliffe). Harry, a sensitive young boy who has a scar③ on his forehead④, has been living with his relatives, the Dursleys. His uncle abuses him, his aunt ignores him, and his cousin hates him. At first, Harry thinks that his parents were killed in a car crash when he was a baby. However, he later finds out that his father was a wizard⑤ and that his mother was a witch⑥, both of whom were murdered by an evil⑦ wizard - the same wizard who gave Harry the scar⑧. Harry discovers that he possesses a wizard's powers too, and that he already has a reputation⑨ in the world of witches and wizards because of his parents.
Hagrid (played by Robbie Coltrane) is a very large person who works at Hogwarts, a special institution⑩ for young witches and wizards. He comes to rescue Harry from⑪ the Dursleys and take him to the school. They have a few adventures along the way, and Harry is introduced to a whole new world he never knew about - the world of magic⑫. The world of ordinary people exists parallel⑬ to the world of magic, but the ordinary people are not aware of it.
