Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and final adventure in the Harry Potter film series, is a motion picture event, told in two full-length parts.
Part 1 begins as Harry, Ron and Hermione set out on their perilous mission to track down and destroy the secret to Voldemort’s immortality and destruction—the Horcruxes. On their own, without the guidance of their professors or the protection of Professor Dumbledore, the three friends must now rely on one another more than ever. But there are Dark Forces in their midst that threaten to tear them apart.
Meanwhile, the wizarding world has become a dangerous place for all enemies of the Dark Lord. The long-feared war has begun and Voldemort’s Death Eaters seize control of the Ministry of Magic and even Hogwarts, terrorizing and arresting anyone who might oppose them. But the one prize they still seek is the one most valuable to Voldemort: Harry Potter. The Chosen One has become the hunted one as the Death Eaters search for Harry with orders to bring him to Voldemort… alive.
Harry’s only hope is to find the Horcruxes before Voldemort finds him. But as he searches for clues, he uncovers an old and almost forgotten tale—the legend of the Deathly Hallows. And if the legend turns out to be true, it could give Voldemort the ultimate power he seeks.
Little does Harry know that his future has already been decided by his past when, on that fateful day, he became “the Boy Who Lived.” No longer just a boy, Harry Potter is drawing ever closer to the task for which he has been preparing since the day he first stepped into Hogwarts: the ultimate battle with Voldemort.
Shot in the UK both on location and in studio Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows shows more of London than the previous six films, including scenes filmed in the one of the capital’s most recognised landmarks - Piccadilly Circus.
As seen in previous films the visitor’s entrance to The Ministry of Magic is still on the corner of Great Scotland Yard and Scotland Place. In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Harry and Arthur Weasley (Ron’s dad) use a public telephone box to enter The Ministry of Magic. Although the public call box does not actually exist in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Harry, Hermione and Ron have to sneak into the Ministry in disguise using a public bathroom. The entrance is still around the same area.
In the pictures above we see Ron spying on Mafalda Hopkirk (Sophie Thompson) who unwittingly contributes to Hermione’s disguise.
