"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" – a retrospective

Pop Culture Double Date

Sick of half-baked movies and Marvel TV shows that disappoint, we decided to go back to something that we knew we'd like – the Harry Potter franchise. So on the eve of its 20th anniversary, we ponder how well the first of Harry Potters films holds up. Does it charm and inspire wonder as it did when we first encountered the world of these movies? Could these kids act? And is Snape an even more iconic Alan Rickman character than Hans Gruber? The answers to these questions await in the latest instalment of Pop Culture Double Date.
