What happens

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 is a 2010 fantasy film directed by David Yates from a screenplay by Steve Kloves. The first of two cinematic parts based on the 2007 novel Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling, it is the sequel to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) and the seventh instalment in the Harry Potter film series. The film stars Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter, with Rupert Grint and Emma Watson reprising roles as Harry's best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, respectively. The film follows Harry as he has been asked by Dumbledore to find and destroy Lord Voldemort's secret to immortality – the Horcruxes. Filming began on 19 February 2009 and was completed on 12 June 2010. The film was released in 2D cinemas and IMAX formats in the United Kingdom and in the United States on 19 November 2010, by Warner Bros. Pictures. In the film's worldwide opening weekend, Part 1 grossed $330 million, the third-highest in the series, and the highest opening of 2010, as well as the eighth-highest of all time. With a worldwide gross of $960 million, Part 1 became the third-highest-grossing film of 2010, the tenth highest-grossing film of all time at the time and the third-highest-grossing Harry Potter film in terms of worldwide totals. The film received positive reviews, and was nominated for many awards, including the Academy Award for Best Art Direction and Best Visual Effects. The film was followed by the concluding entry, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 in 2011. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
