I was walking around today, when out of nowhere an idea of how l would like to see the 6th movie close just popped into my head. More about that later. The more I thought about, I began to realize that this scene should be a powerful, heavy, and emotional one. So far, most of the movies have ended on a light-hearted note. Obviously, that's about to change with OoP, but I think that it will change even more in HBP. The wizarding world's moral leader has been murdered and Harry is about to face the challenge that has been mounting through the whole series. I think the closing scene should be a whopper. If you were put in charge of it, how would you have the 6th movie close?
The idea that popped into my head today is this: We've seen the kids off, and come back to the Great Hall, and it is empty. We pan around the eerily empty hall with background choral music (no words, just Ahhs and Ohhhs in some discordant minor key). As the pan finishes, we see that it is not entirely empty. McGonagall is sitting at a table with her head facing down so we can not quite see her face. The music crescendos. We continue to pan backwards and single tear falls from her face onto the papers she's looking at. We pan back a little more past a candle. A gust blows, the candle blows out (symbolic of the lost battle, the loss of Dumbledore, and the loss of innocence), the music dies abruptly, and the screen goes black. What do you think? How would you design it? |
