Aww, that was really beautiful and so bittersweet, Sara! I loved the Prince's Tale in the film. It was really well done and utterly heart-breaking. (And wasn't Young Snape the most adorable little boy?)

Loved your interpretation of the "you could be happy"-lines. That was so sad and made me feel really sorry for Snape. (I will never understand why Lily had chosen to be with a prat like James Potter

)

Great vid!

Thanks Karolina! Me too! I was wishing they had done the teenage Snape/ Lily era when they officially "broke up" (so to speak), but ah well! Haha, They really didn't make James Potter look very appealing in the films did they? I guess he did have some sort of charm about him... after he got over himself a bit, lol!! In fact I don't know if the book ever made him very appealing. He just acted like a jerk!! Of course James Potter DOES have to have one of the closest birthdays to my own, with the same decan or whatever. The only conclusion I could come to was that maybe JK Rowling just really doesn't like Aries people? LOL!

What a perfect song you chose, Sarah.

I really enjoyed this. I hadn't read the books; but I'm watching it; Snape's death and Harry learning about who Snape truly was; I cried. :cries: I loved the coloring, the transitions, and the effects. You did a great job on this in quality of the video and the story. You really told it well.

Aw, thank you Brooke! I was thinking of this song forever since I heard it and read the book when it was released. There's even more of his story in the book, including his fall out with Lily, which is amazing. You should read it, because it's worth it & both versions made me so sad!! lol, and honestly I was just trying to make the theater copy video match the rest of the better versions which is the reason for the coloring.

That was very pretty! Nice work!

Great song choice, that worked so well for this! I'm not terribly familiar with HP but your story was clear enough to follow along with easily.

Nicely done!
