Hello. Here is today's movie with a scene that happens today, May 29, I hope you enjoy it and watch it tonight.
HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS
Dobby the house elf visits Harry
Potter at the Dursleys to warn him not to return to Hogwarts as bad things are
going to happen When Harry refuses Dobby causes trouble that gets Harry locked
in his room. Ron Weasley and his twin brothers ‘borrow’ their Dad’s flying car
and rescue Harry. On a trip to Diagon Alley, they meet Gilderoy Lockhart the
new defense against the dark arts teacher and have a run-in with Draco Malfoy
and his father, Lucius. When Harry and Ron can’t get onto Platform 9 ¾ to take
the Hogwarts Express, they ‘borrow’ the flying car to take them there. The car
crashes, causing Ron to damage his wand and then disappears into the Dark
Forest. Lockhart is revealed to be an incompetent teacher and egomaniac. Harry
starts hearing things that no one else can and they find Filch’s cat petrified.
A message left on the wall in blood says the Chamber of Secrets has been
opened. The three friends learn this is a secret chamber supposedly built by
Salazar Slytherin, one of Hogwart’s founders, containing a monster that only
his heir can open. It had been opened 50 years ago. A student is petrified and Harry learns he can talk to snakes.
Another student is petrified and Harry visits Dumbledore’s office. Hermione
has brewed shape shifting polyjuice potion.
Harry and Ron use this to assume the appearance of two Slytherin
students and they pump Draco for
information, but he doesn’t know anything. Moaning Myrtle, a ghost who lives in
a girls bathroom at the school has a book thrown at her. Harry takes the book
and learns it belonged to a student from 50 years ago named Tom Riddle. Riddle
allows Harry to see what happened 50 years ago at the school. The Chamber of
Secrets was opened, a student was killed and Hagrid was blamed. The diary is
later stolen and Hermione is petrified. Hagrid is arrested and Dumbledore is
removed as headmaster. Harry and Ron go into the Dark forest, where they learn
from Agragog, the leader of the giant spiders that live there that Hagrid is
innocent and that the student who died 50 years ago was found in a bathroom.
Harry deduces this is Moaning Myrtle and they learn Hermionie figured out that
the monster is a basilisk, a giant snake that has been using the sewer pipes to
travel around the school. On May 29,
1993, a message is left saying that Ron’s sister Ginny has been taken into the
Chamber of Secrets. Lockhart, deputized to deal with the monster tries to run
away, but Harry and Ron force him into the chamber, the entrance of which is in
Myrtle’s bathroom. Lockhart tries to use Ron’s damaged wand to erase their
memories, but instead erases his own.
Harry enters the chamber and finds an unconscious Ginny and a revived Tom
Riddle, who reveals he is Lord Voldemort, Harry’s mortal foe. Fawkes,
Dumbledore’s phoenix flies in and drops
the Sorting Hat. Fawkes blinds the basilisk. Harry pulls the sword of
Gryffindor out of the hat and uses it to kill the basilisk. He then uses a fang
from the basilisk to destroy the diary, which destroys the manifestation of Tom
Riddle. Fawkes’s tears heal a fatal
bite Harry had gotten from the basilisk. [1:50:59 to 2:17:57] Harry later
tricks Lucius Malfoy into releasing Dobby from his service. Hermione and the
other students are revived and Hagrid and Dumbledore return. All is well at
Hogwarts … until next year.
A good adaptation of the book. It
retains most plot elements has a lot of scary and funny moments. If you’re a
Potter fan you’ll love it, otherwise probably not.

Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling (Scholastic Press, New York, 1998) we
