SECOND DAY OF CHRISTMAS

To commemorate the holiday season I am going to make a string of special posts inspired by the Twelve Days of Christmas. This year the countdown will be on my favourite film adaptations of books. Keep in mind that in most cases the printed version is still better the film but this list is for films that have done a great job at capturing the spirit of the novel or are just purely entertaining. So enjoy and let the fun begin:)

I was anticipating this movie for a very long time. I am very big fan of the Harry Potter books (as many are) and sadly this is the first of the final two films in the series. One of the things I love about the Harry Potter films is that they are close to how you imagine the books to be. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, the first installment of a two part film, was very exciting and mature. I enjoyed it immensely and overall it was a great movie (my personal favourite thus far). I am excited for the final installment.
