--->"Parents shouldn't leave their kids unless -- unless they've got to.""
!!From the first Film:
* In Deathly Hallows when [[spoiler:Dobby dies]]. Also, when [[spoiler:Harry goes to visit his parents' grave with Hermione.]]
** Oh God, it's ''so'' much worse in the film. Originally, he just said [[spoiler:"Harry...Potter..."]], but they gave him a few more lines while Harry was holding him. And how he weakly whispered that [[spoiler:the Shell Cottage was a wonderful place to be with friends, which is basically his way of saying "I'm with the ones I love, so I'm OK with dying"]]... *SNIFF*
*** And don't miss that Harry kinda gives him a little cuddle. He's holding him in arms and he kind of bends his head down as if to hold him closer. Just kill me now.
** The opening itself. [[spoiler:Hermione wiping her parents' minds, watching her disappear from every photograph from every stage in her life is extremely sad.]] Special mention should also be given to the death of [[spoiler:Hedwig, since the film version depicts it as being closer to a HeroicSacrifice. The owl had a chance to fly away and be free (possibly tricking some viewers whom had read the book into thinking she'd be SparedByTheAdaptation), but chose to remain by Harry's side and help him, only to be hit by the curse... suddenly go limp... and drop from the sky...]]
** Perhaps it was the timing (right next to Hermione's scene), but seeing Harry go back into his closet for one final time as he prepares to leave it and his childhood home behind forever, was a bit hard to watch in the film. [[spoiler:Especially if you have read the books and know that, for all the bad memories associated with it, it was the one place where he was completely safe from Voldemort's grasp to that point.]] The fact that, the last time the films visited that closet, Harry was an innocent, ten-year-old boy with no clue of his origins and is now a young man who has seen acquaintances, close friends, and mentors die in front of him several times and is now poised for a showdown with the cause of most, if not all, of his suffering, only starting with his parents dying, being shipped off to the Dursleys', and forced to sleep in the closet in the first place... GAH.
** When Hermione is [[spoiler:being tortured by Bellatrix. Doubles as NightmareFuel due to how the whole scene is set up to look like a rape.]]
*** And then you see that [[spoiler:actually was carving the word "mudblood" into her arm with a knife. Holocaust parallel, anyone? And though that only happened in the movies, in the book Hermione said she was proud to be a "Mudblood."]] This troper put the two together together and bawled.
** Fred first seeing his injured twin George.
* Also in Deathly Hallows, a scene that made me absolutely ''lose it'' was when [[spoiler:Harry gets Hermione to dance with him in the tent after Ron has left and things are looking pretty bleak. The abruptness of the scene really struck a cord; they start to dance, Harry goofs around a bit, Hermione starts to smile and, for a minute, everything seems like it's going to be okay.... and then she puts her head on his shoulder and they just stand there and you realize it's ''hopeless''.]] Add to that the fact that they set the scene to the song "O Children" by Nick Cave (the first time they've used any bit of modern music in the films) and you've got yourself some pretty heavy material there. And while I'm pretty supportive of all the canon pairings, that was just such a sublime scene that encompassed all the fear and tension and complete tragedy of their situation only to contrast it with the fact that they're just teenagers and they don't know what to do. Gahh... it still makes me sad.
** The song just made the whole thing that much more tragic. The song itself is about the loss of innocence and death, and really, that's what Part 1 was about for the most part.
* During [[spoiler:Dobby's death scene]], the part where Harry asks Hermione to help him gets this Troper every time. Hermione has always been able to help him in the past, and the look on his face when he realizes she can't is heart wrenching.
** Even moreso the look on ''her'' face. She's never failed to find an answer before to help the team, and the one time that she can't, she has to watch an ally die right in front of her.
** But Harry as well. Most of the people close to or associated with Harry had died in a quick although shocking manner (usually by way of Avada Kedavra) - or outside of Harry's presence (like [[spoiler: Moody]]). But not this time; this is the first and (as far as the book canon goes) ''only'' time a friend of his literally ''bleeds out'' in his arms and his only option is to watch it happen - where he sees Death coming slowly but can do nothing to stop it.
* As mentioned above, Hermione, at the beginning of the film. We see her in her room, being called down to tea. Then she enters the living room, and obliviates her parents. Her expression alone is enough to tear your heart out, and the slow fading of her from the photos... The more you think about what she'd need to do to make her parents not know they had a daughter, the more heart-wrenching it gets. And, yes, the more disturbing it gets.
* In a deleted scene for DH part 1, Aunt Petunia shows that she may not have been as cold of a bitch as she let on.
-->[[spoiler:'''Petunia''': [[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther You didn't just lose a mother that night in Godric's Hollow, you know. I lost a sister.]]]]
** Which is most likely what she was going to say at the end of the chapter in the book.
* I cannot believe that no one has mentioned the scene after the trio escape from the Ministry. Ron [[spoiler:gets splinched, nearly severing his arm. Harry is in some sort of shock while Hermione is in tears barking orders at him. Ron, on the other hand, is portraying the pain he is in in the most gut-wrenching way possible]]. Already knowing the outcome of said situation didn't help this troper from bursting into tears for the '''THIRD''' time already in the movie.
!!Form the second Film
* The trailer for Deathly Hallows Part 2 shows Lupin and Tonks reaching out for each other as spells flash around them.
** Several forums have agreed that there is ''at least'' a 50/50 chance that they'll die before they actually touch.
* The scene in the Great Hall during the pause in the final battle. As if seeing the reaction to [[spoiler:Fred's]] death wasn't soul-crushing enough, the additional deaths of [[spoiler:Tonks and Lupin]] and even less beloved characters like [[spoiler: Colin/Nigel and possibly Lavender Brown (if she didn't survive Greyback's attack)]] are hard to swallow. The whole scene is akin to the aftermath of a major school shooting.
** Even worse, before the battle, [[spoiler:Fred and George are shown together for the last time, still maintaining their jovial, light-hearted natures.]] Of course, anyone who's read the books knows what's about to happen, which makes it incredibly sad.
** Guess what, it still gets worse. During the scene where Harry reveals he's still alive, watch George during the reaction shot where everyone begins smiling and cheering. [[spoiler: He turns to look over one shoulder, and you can see him say "Fred," as if he was looking for his brother's reaction.]]
* The Prince's Tale part of the last movie. [[JerkassWoobie Snape]] ''collapsing to the floor'' upon seeing Lily, ''crying'', howling ''hysterically'' in grief [[spoiler:in the added scene of him cradling Lily's dead body while a baby Harry looks on]]. Damn you and your [[DracoInLeatherPants leather pants]] AlanRickman.
** Baby Harry [[spoiler:isn't just sitting there. ''He's crying too.'']]
** Oh God, Snape's memories had me in shreds. Especially when he goes to Lily's house and holds her dead body while howling in grief. What makes it even sadder is the moment when Snape summons his patronus in front of Dumbledore, showing that even after 17 years, he still loves her. "Lily? After all these years?" "Always." Just that silent, broken whisper... *sniff* excuse me...
** Also, there's the FridgeHorror that at some point, Snape would have to force himself to break away from the body that once held his only past genuine human connection to conceal any dark involvement (and ultimately join to Dumbledore's side for her sake) he had. Imagine that pain that could only be understated by inference.
** And the soundtrack for the whole of that part? Does not help. It starts out so sweet and optimistic, and by the end it's absolutely ''heartbreaking''.
** Snape was a prime cause of tears in pretty much the entire movie. His death was even more horrifically violent than in the book, and the way he just sits there against the glass, bleeding to death, until Harry goes up to him...(and, it should be pointed out, vainly tries to save him by stopping the bleeding, even though he doesn't yet know the truth about his allegiance)
** This line they added to his death scene:
-->[[spoiler:You have your mother's eyes.]]
** God, not just the line, but the ''way'' he says it: no malice, no anger, not even any bitterness, just calm and accepting and a little sad.
*** This troper was stunned by how almost ''loving'' it sounded, almost as if he was talking to Lily herself. (Not...[[{{Squick}} not like that]]...shut up, you know what I mean.) Both Jim Dale and Stephen Fry read the lines as sort of a strangled whisper, but Rickman's version is possibly even better.
*** Not to mention, this is the moment when Snape finally comes to respect Harry. In the very last moments of his life he gets over his shallow prejudices against James Potter's son and comes to terms with the fact that, although he resembles his father, Harry sees the world through the eyes of his mother. He accepts that Harry really ''is'' a good person.
** Anyone notice that, books and movies combined, it's chronologically the last time any character notes that fact? Not to mention that, after years of comparing Harry to his father, it's the first and last time Snape compares him to Lily.
** For this troper, it was how utterly gutted Snape sounded when he realised that Dumbledore had been grooming the child of the woman he loved, the child he had protected to honour her memory and put himself through hell for, to death, like a lamb for slaughter, in order to orchestrate Voldemort's final destruction. And that this was the only way to finally avenge her death. Scrapes you out hollow.
** This troper's proverbial dams broke when he saw Snape's tears coursing down his face. They seemed to me like tears of a sort of melancholy joy, that he was finally going to join the woman he loved at last. And his final act was to give perhaps his most treasured possessions, his own memories of Lily, to her son.
* [[spoiler:Harry actually saying his goodbyes to Ron and Hermione in person, unlike the novel.]] ''Part 2'' is a clinic in how to take heartwrenching material from a novel and make it more staggering in terms of emotion.
** From that same scene: [[spoiler:"I'll go with you." Hermione has to know that going into the Forest with Harry is suicide... but she offers to go with him anyway, so her best friend doesn't have to die alone.]]
** Emma's acting was flawless. You can just tell her heart is shattered. Her face is crumpling, and she's desperate to comfort Harry, and she can hardly speak because her throat's closed up. She starts crying, and then she's hugging Harry, and it's just horrible, watching Harry walk alone to his death, his two best friends watching him go.
** To [[Tropers/{{Rlkitterman}} me]], this scene resembles what happens when someone who is going to die of cancer or another terminal illness reveals the news. "I think I've known for a while and I think you have too."
* The [[spoiler:resurrection stone scene.]] Brilliantly done.
** This troper remained absolutely dry-eyed until that scene. [[spoiler:"Does it hurt?"]] Excuse me, [[SandInMyEyes there's something in my eye...]]
** Harry reaches his hand to Lily for the first time of all the times he's seen her ghost... and he goes right through her.
*** Made worse, because, in that moment, you realize Harry needs a hug from his mother more than anyone in the series ever as. He's walking to his death. Voldemort will probably torture him, or worse, set Nagini on him. Just some sort of reassurance, some sort of touch, you can see on his face as he starts forward, stumbling, towards his mom. And, of course, he's denied that little comfort as he walks to his death, sacrificing all.
** In the same scene, after Harry quietly asks the ghosts of his parents, Sirius, and Remus to stay with him, Lily replies with "Always". Never mind the fact that the mere idea of our loved ones never leaving us is already heartwarming and tear-jerking at once; it's the same reply Snape gave when he talked about his love for her. Damn it...
** [[spoiler: "We never left."]] And then seeing Sirius straight after that just made it worse.
** When Harry says "I never wanted any of you to die for me," and then reminds us that [[spoiler:Remus's death left his son Teddy an orphan.]]
* To make everything full-circle, it closes with John Williams' "Leaving Hogwarts" and then his closing credits medley from the first two films. Yep, the movie is a TearJerker to the literal end.
** Any other song, and I would not have cried like I did. But hearing that? I just sobbed unashamedly. It says.... "everything's okay now, all is right. Things came full circle, and they always will. Hogwarts is here, and it always will be, it will never have truly left us, so long as there are loyal to it."
* [[spoiler:Hagrid wasn't shown at all until the end of the film. The part that got this troper was her realizing that the adventure began and seemingly ended with Hagrid carrying Harry in. The look on Hagrid's face made it worse. Then the part where Hagrid and Harry hug at the end was extremely poignant as well as warm...]]
** And, y'know... Harry still looked pretty much as small in Hagrid's arms as he did the first time they were shown hugging.
* The last we see of Remus and Tonks [[spoiler:before they are killed]] is them reaching out to each other as the battle begins, without quite touching. Later, [[spoiler:their bodies are lying next to each other]] with their hands almost, but still not quite touching.
* And what of the last moments of Lily Potter? ''Harry . . . Harry, you are loved. You are '''so''' loved. Harry, Daddy loves you. Mummy loves you. Harry, be safe. Be strong.''
** That was ''so'' beautiful and ''so'' sweet. It's especially poignant when you consider all of the crap that Harry goes through.
* The final fade to black after the epilogue. The final few seconds of music and then that brief second of silence when you, and everyone around you realises that it's over, after 10 years.
* The scene where Harry, Ron and Hermione make their way through the devastating battle that's raging all across Hogwarts, accompanied by [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4HX1ZwHwzc this]] music.
* *Even more tear-jerking when the three of them duck behind rubble, narrowly avoiding a troll with a club. Very suble, but I cried at that.
* The dragon scene in the Deathly Hallows. They really played it up in the movie. First the dragon's expression as it looks up longingly at the far-off light in the ceiling, then when it finally gets there, it just sits and ''breathes'' that fresh air that it probably hadn't had in a long time.
* In the final film, when it appears to everyone that Harry is dead, Ginny ''[[BigNo screams]]'' and tries to rush forward, and has to be physically held back by her father and brothers. Heartbreaking enough in itself, especially with Bonnie Wright's voice sounding absolutely tortured in that scene, but there's the implication that Ginny was so wracked with rage and grief at losing Harry that she was willing to charge straight at Voldemort, even though this would have almost certainly resulted in her death.
* Mcgonagalls face during that scene. Hats of to Maggie, because she looks so heartrendingly wreaked, you just feel your soul aching.
* Speaking of Lavender, her death in the film. Yes, she's annoying and silly in HBP- but she's still fighting right along with Harry, Ron, and Hermione. And it's Hermione who kills Greyback, who is happily eating Lavender. It really drives home the common theme of AnyoneCanDie. This troper loved to hate Lavender throughout the series, but bawled when she died.Ofo
** TT managed to stay straight-faced when it actually happened. The worst part is probably in the aftermath. It's almost blink-and-you-miss-it, but there's a two- or three-second scene of Parvati and Professor Trelawney sitting in shocked grief over Lavender's dead body. Trelawney covers Lavender's body and simply says, "She's gone." Of course, not only were Parvati and Lavender hardly ever seen apart in the books, but the two were possibly the only students portrayed as holding Trelawney in high esteem. Many were indifferent to her, and most (even among the professors) regarded her as something of a joke.
* Fred and George were together for everything, and after the battle is over, and everyone is cheering, George glances over at where Fred would be, seeking to share in the joy with him. It had become automatic. It doesn't immediately dawn on George that Fred is not with him and never will be again. It kind of makes you feel bad for everyone who's lost a twin.
* Voldemort's death in the film adaptation of ''DeathlyHallows''. Yes, he is an [[CompleteMonster irredeemably evil]], mass murdering, [[FantasticRacism Muggle hating]] [[CompleteMonster monster]], but, just to see him falling to disintegrating, and that his greatest fear has been realized, just seems sad.
* All of the Hogwartians raising their wands, sending bright lights out as [=McGonagall's=] statues are parading around them. Especially when you've read the books and you know that all their protections are going to be for naught anyway. The final moment before the battle of them all being united in protection, ready to defend their friends and they place they know and love. That was the first time this troper lost it.
!!From the first Film:
* In Deathly Hallows when [[spoiler:Dobby dies]]. Also, when [[spoiler:Harry goes to visit his parents' grave with Hermione.]]
** Oh God, it's ''so'' much worse in the film. Originally, he just said [[spoiler:"Harry...Potter..."]], but they gave him a few more lines while Harry was holding him. And how he weakly whispered that [[spoiler:the Shell Cottage was a wonderful place to be with friends, which is basically his way of saying "I'm with the ones I love, so I'm OK with dying"]]... *SNIFF*
*** And don't miss that Harry kinda gives him a little cuddle. He's holding him in arms and he kind of bends his head down as if to hold him closer. Just kill me now.
** The opening itself. [[spoiler:Hermione wiping her parents' minds, watching her disappear from every photograph from every stage in her life is extremely sad.]] Special mention should also be given to the death of [[spoiler:Hedwig, since the film version depicts it as being closer to a HeroicSacrifice. The owl had a chance to fly away and be free (possibly tricking some viewers whom had read the book into thinking she'd be SparedByTheAdaptation), but chose to remain by Harry's side and help him, only to be hit by the curse... suddenly go limp... and drop from the sky...]]
** Perhaps it was the timing (right next to Hermione's scene), but seeing Harry go back into his closet for one final time as he prepares to leave it and his childhood home behind forever, was a bit hard to watch in the film. [[spoiler:Especially if you have read the books and know that, for all the bad memories associated with it, it was the one place where he was completely safe from Voldemort's grasp to that point.]] The fact that, the last time the films visited that closet, Harry was an innocent, ten-year-old boy with no clue of his origins and is now a young man who has seen acquaintances, close friends, and mentors die in front of him several times and is now poised for a showdown with the cause of most, if not all, of his suffering, only starting with his parents dying, being shipped off to the Dursleys', and forced to sleep in the closet in the first place... GAH.
** When Hermione is [[spoiler:being tortured by Bellatrix. Doubles as NightmareFuel due to how the whole scene is set up to look like a rape.]]
*** And then you see that [[spoiler:actually was carving the word "mudblood" into her arm with a knife. Holocaust parallel, anyone? And though that only happened in the movies, in the book Hermione said she was proud to be a "Mudblood."]] This troper put the two together together and bawled.
** Fred first seeing his injured twin George.
* Also in Deathly Hallows, a scene that made me absolutely ''lose it'' was when [[spoiler:Harry gets Hermione to dance with him in the tent after Ron has left and things are looking pretty bleak. The abruptness of the scene really struck a cord; they start to dance, Harry goofs around a bit, Hermione starts to smile and, for a minute, everything seems like it's going to be okay.... and then she puts her head on his shoulder and they just stand there and you realize it's ''hopeless''.]] Add to that the fact that they set the scene to the song "O Children" by Nick Cave (the first time they've used any bit of modern music in the films) and you've got yourself some pretty heavy material there. And while I'm pretty supportive of all the canon pairings, that was just such a sublime scene that encompassed all the fear and tension and complete tragedy of their situation only to contrast it with the fact that they're just teenagers and they don't know what to do. Gahh... it still makes me sad.
** The song just made the whole thing that much more tragic. The song itself is about the loss of innocence and death, and really, that's what Part 1 was about for the most part.
* During [[spoiler:Dobby's death scene]], the part where Harry asks Hermione to help him gets this Troper every time. Hermione has always been able to help him in the past, and the look on his face when he realizes she can't is heart wrenching.
** Even moreso the look on ''her'' face. She's never failed to find an answer before to help the team, and the one time that she can't, she has to watch an ally die right in front of her.
** But Harry as well. Most of the people close to or associated with Harry had died in a quick although shocking manner (usually by way of Avada Kedavra) - or outside of Harry's presence (like [[spoiler: Moody]]). But not this time; this is the first and (as far as the book canon goes) ''only'' time a friend of his literally ''bleeds out'' in his arms and his only option is to watch it happen - where he sees Death coming slowly but can do nothing to stop it.
* As mentioned above, Hermione, at the beginning of the film. We see her in her room, being called down to tea. Then she enters the living room, and obliviates her parents. Her expression alone is enough to tear your heart out, and the slow fading of her from the photos... The more you think about what she'd need to do to make her parents not know they had a daughter, the more heart-wrenching it gets. And, yes, the more disturbing it gets.
* In a deleted scene for DH part 1, Aunt Petunia shows that she may not have been as cold of a bitch as she let on.
-->[[spoiler:'''Petunia''': [[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther You didn't just lose a mother that night in Godric's Hollow, you know. I lost a sister.]]]]
** Which is most likely what she was going to say at the end of the chapter in the book.
* I cannot believe that no one has mentioned the scene after the trio escape from the Ministry. Ron [[spoiler:gets splinched, nearly severing his arm. Harry is in some sort of shock while Hermione is in tears barking orders at him. Ron, on the other hand, is portraying the pain he is in in the most gut-wrenching way possible]]. Already knowing the outcome of said situation didn't help this troper from bursting into tears for the '''THIRD''' time already in the movie.
!!Form the second Film
* The trailer for Deathly Hallows Part 2 shows Lupin and Tonks reaching out for each other as spells flash around them.
** Several forums have agreed that there is ''at least'' a 50/50 chance that they'll die before they actually touch.
* The scene in the Great Hall during the pause in the final battle. As if seeing the reaction to [[spoiler:Fred's]] death wasn't soul-crushing enough, the additional deaths of [[spoiler:Tonks and Lupin]] and even less beloved characters like [[spoiler: Colin/Nigel and possibly Lavender Brown (if she didn't survive Greyback's attack)]] are hard to swallow. The whole scene is akin to the aftermath of a major school shooting.
** Even worse, before the battle, [[spoiler:Fred and George are shown together for the last time, still maintaining their jovial, light-hearted natures.]] Of course, anyone who's read the books knows what's about to happen, which makes it incredibly sad.
** Guess what, it still gets worse. During the scene where Harry reveals he's still alive, watch George during the reaction shot where everyone begins smiling and cheering. [[spoiler: He turns to look over one shoulder, and you can see him say "Fred," as if he was looking for his brother's reaction.]]
* The Prince's Tale part of the last movie. [[JerkassWoobie Snape]] ''collapsing to the floor'' upon seeing Lily, ''crying'', howling ''hysterically'' in grief [[spoiler:in the added scene of him cradling Lily's dead body while a baby Harry looks on]]. Damn you and your [[DracoInLeatherPants leather pants]] AlanRickman.
** Baby Harry [[spoiler:isn't just sitting there. ''He's crying too.'']]
** Oh God, Snape's memories had me in shreds. Especially when he goes to Lily's house and holds her dead body while howling in grief. What makes it even sadder is the moment when Snape summons his patronus in front of Dumbledore, showing that even after 17 years, he still loves her. "Lily? After all these years?" "Always." Just that silent, broken whisper... *sniff* excuse me...
** Also, there's the FridgeHorror that at some point, Snape would have to force himself to break away from the body that once held his only past genuine human connection to conceal any dark involvement (and ultimately join to Dumbledore's side for her sake) he had. Imagine that pain that could only be understated by inference.
** And the soundtrack for the whole of that part? Does not help. It starts out so sweet and optimistic, and by the end it's absolutely ''heartbreaking''.
** Snape was a prime cause of tears in pretty much the entire movie. His death was even more horrifically violent than in the book, and the way he just sits there against the glass, bleeding to death, until Harry goes up to him...(and, it should be pointed out, vainly tries to save him by stopping the bleeding, even though he doesn't yet know the truth about his allegiance)
** This line they added to his death scene:
-->[[spoiler:You have your mother's eyes.]]
** God, not just the line, but the ''way'' he says it: no malice, no anger, not even any bitterness, just calm and accepting and a little sad.
*** This troper was stunned by how almost ''loving'' it sounded, almost as if he was talking to Lily herself. (Not...[[{{Squick}} not like that]]...shut up, you know what I mean.) Both Jim Dale and Stephen Fry read the lines as sort of a strangled whisper, but Rickman's version is possibly even better.
*** Not to mention, this is the moment when Snape finally comes to respect Harry. In the very last moments of his life he gets over his shallow prejudices against James Potter's son and comes to terms with the fact that, although he resembles his father, Harry sees the world through the eyes of his mother. He accepts that Harry really ''is'' a good person.
** Anyone notice that, books and movies combined, it's chronologically the last time any character notes that fact? Not to mention that, after years of comparing Harry to his father, it's the first and last time Snape compares him to Lily.
** For this troper, it was how utterly gutted Snape sounded when he realised that Dumbledore had been grooming the child of the woman he loved, the child he had protected to honour her memory and put himself through hell for, to death, like a lamb for slaughter, in order to orchestrate Voldemort's final destruction. And that this was the only way to finally avenge her death. Scrapes you out hollow.
** This troper's proverbial dams broke when he saw Snape's tears coursing down his face. They seemed to me like tears of a sort of melancholy joy, that he was finally going to join the woman he loved at last. And his final act was to give perhaps his most treasured possessions, his own memories of Lily, to her son.
* [[spoiler:Harry actually saying his goodbyes to Ron and Hermione in person, unlike the novel.]] ''Part 2'' is a clinic in how to take heartwrenching material from a novel and make it more staggering in terms of emotion.
** From that same scene: [[spoiler:"I'll go with you." Hermione has to know that going into the Forest with Harry is suicide... but she offers to go with him anyway, so her best friend doesn't have to die alone.]]
** Emma's acting was flawless. You can just tell her heart is shattered. Her face is crumpling, and she's desperate to comfort Harry, and she can hardly speak because her throat's closed up. She starts crying, and then she's hugging Harry, and it's just horrible, watching Harry walk alone to his death, his two best friends watching him go.
** To [[Tropers/{{Rlkitterman}} me]], this scene resembles what happens when someone who is going to die of cancer or another terminal illness reveals the news. "I think I've known for a while and I think you have too."
* The [[spoiler:resurrection stone scene.]] Brilliantly done.
** This troper remained absolutely dry-eyed until that scene. [[spoiler:"Does it hurt?"]] Excuse me, [[SandInMyEyes there's something in my eye...]]
** Harry reaches his hand to Lily for the first time of all the times he's seen her ghost... and he goes right through her.
*** Made worse, because, in that moment, you realize Harry needs a hug from his mother more than anyone in the series ever as. He's walking to his death.

** Any other song, and I would not have cried like I did. But hearing that? I just sobbed unashamedly. It says.... "everything's okay now, all is right. Things came full circle, and they always will.

** During the Battle of Hogwarts, when Harry sees that [[spoiler:Lupin and Tonks]] are dead, he pretty much shatters emotionally, running blindly toward the only place where he feels safe: Dumbledore's office. When the gargoyle guarding the staircase to the office asks for the password, Harry says the first thing that comes to mind: [[spoiler:"Dumbledore"]]. The password works.
