The movie really simplified this moment - THE WEASLEEEEYYYSS APPEARED -

The truth about the Dudley and the snake scene

My first night at Hogwarts was much stranger than I remembered

Nobody ever told me Harry Potter started like this...

There's something about Hogwarts that no one wants to explain.

VERNON'S MADNESS that we know only from the book

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire – Every Cover Design Around the World

The night that changed the entire Harry Potter story

What Harry found in London changed everything

The friendship began with a lie.

The movie changed an important detail in this scene

The perks of being the main character

The book makes this trip much more special.
