It is with the whimsical wonder of childhood I wish I could now look upon not just real events, but the stories I read, watch, and hear. With the passage of time and the resulting maturity of the individual, it is both easy and common to lose love for light-hearted tales. Joyous tales of high adventures are replaced by gritty character studies and dramas tackling complex questions. Lines are blurred. Barriers are crossed or tossed aside. But if one can find it in their heart to remember the innocence of childhood, to call upon the fresh and rejuvenating emotions that drove the spirit of creativity within them, it is all the better. For myself, the first two Harry Potter films accomplish this like no other books, movies, or stories can. Hello everyone, and welcome back to Exploring Fiction. Like almost every child of this era, one of my first forays into genre fiction was Harry Potter. The books came first, of course. I wouldn’t have it any other way. But the films were also being released at a formative time in my life, and I therefore hold as much appreciation for them in my heart as I do the novels upon which they are based. Yet, though I cannot definitively name them my favorite, the first two films, The Sorcerer’s Stone and The Chamber of Secrets, have taken on a unique quality within my own memory and psyche. They remind me of childhood. Not necessarily my childhood, but the essence of what it means to be young and innocent. The general ambience of the two movies is warm and whimsical. The Sorcerer’s Stone and The Chamber of Secrets, while hinting at darkness ahead, portray the Wizarding World and its inhabitants in the wondrous nature of their protagonists. Even in the darker moments within the two films, a sense of hope and light and fun is maintained. These two movies made a lasting impact upon me for these very reasons, and I can almost confirm without a doubt that I am not alone in this. So, today I want to take the time to discuss why I love The Sorcerer’s Stone and The Chamber of Secrets so much. This is my love letter to the first two Harry Potter films.
