Whether or not you’re a Harry Potter fan, you can’t deny that the movies of author J.K. Rowling’s epic tale stand as excellent examples of modern film-making. Made at a breakneck pace over ten years, they have consistently entertained and brought vivid life to the novels, so much so that it is nearly impossible to return to the books now without still imagining the actors, sets and costumes. For an industry that very often disappoints its audiences, this is a remarkable achievement.
