Film Appreciation
Based on the novel by J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone debuted in U.S. theaters on November 16, 2001. The British-American fantasy film introduced us to Harry Potter, played by Daniel Radcliffe, and his adventures during his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Some fun facts regarding the film: J.K. Rowling insisted that the entire cast be British or Irish; it was originally titled Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone but was changed because publishers felt Americans wouldn't be familiar with the term; and the film was the highest grossing film of 2001.
