Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 Scene 1 Summary

  • We're hearing some spooky noises. (Yup; sounds like a Harry Potter movie to us.)
  • We're also seeing somebody's eyes—just the eyes. Who is this?
  • It's a guy who's talking about dark/scary times, which fits the musical cues to a T.
  • Apparently he's talking to all his citizens, and he's swearing to protect them from dark forces.
  • There are lots of reporters taking pictures. Ah—he must be the Minister of Magic.
