description |
American
director
Chris
Columbus
(HOME
ALONE)
brings
the
magic
of
British
author
J.K.
Rowling's
beloved
best-selling
fantasy
novel
to
life
in
HARRY
POTTER
AND
THE
SORCERER'S
STONE.
Eleven-year-old
orphan
Harry
Potter
(Daniel
Radcliffe)
finds
his
world
turned
upside
down
when
he
discovers
that,
like
his
deceased
parents,
he
is a
wizard
and
has
been
accepted
to
Hogwarts
School
of
Witchcraft
and
Wizardry.
With
fellow
first-year
students
Hermione
Granger
(Emma
Watson)
and
Ron Weasley
(Rupert
Grint)
by
his
side,
Harry's
adventures
begin
in
the
rambling
castle
that
is
Hogwarts.
Vivid
special
effects
make
Hogwarts'
magic
a
reality
with
paintings
that
come
alive,
staircases
that
move
themselves,
friendly
ghosts,
and
fast-paced
Quidditch
(the
school
sport)
matches
in
which
students
zoom
around
on
their
flying
brooms.
Mixed
in
with
the
miracles
of
Hogwarts
are
its
dark
hidden
chambers
and
secrets,
which
Harry
and
his
friends
encounter
as
they
embark
on a
quest
to
keep
a
treasured
powerful
object
from
falling
into
the
wrong
hands.
Staying
true
to
the
book
with
this
film
adaptation,
Columbus
follows
Rowling's
story
to
the
tiniest
detail,
making
it a
special
treat
for
readers
who
were
smitten
with
the
novel.
Radcliffe
is
especially
engaging
as
Harry,
infusing
him
with
a
believable
sense
of
wonderment.
The
star-studded
cast
also
includes
Richard
Harris,
Maggie
Smith,
Alan
Rickman,
and
Robbie
Coltrane.
