Continuity mistake: When running from Aragog, there is one quick shot of the back of the Anglea and the hole that was punched into the back window by the Whomping Willow has vanished to return only a few seconds later.

Starring: Maggie Smith, Alan Rickman, Kenneth Branagh, Richard Harris, Daniel Radcliffe, Jason Isaacs, Emma Watson, Robbie Coltrane, Tom Felton, Rupert Grint, Richard Griffiths
Genres: Adventure, Family, Fantasy, Harry Potter, Mystery
Harry Potter: It's all right Ginny, It's over. It's just a memory.
Trivia: In the scene where Harry and Malfoy are flying on their brooms, there's a shot where Colin takes a picture. Listen to the music right after that. The music is the same music used in Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones during the chase scene on Coruscant (John Williams did the music for this film and all the Star Wars films).
Question: Is this true that line "I didn't know you could read" was improvised by Tom Felton, who forgot his original line?
Answer: Yes in the same way Daniel Radcliffe improvised his line about always being around when talking to Lucius at the end.
Actually, Jason Isaacs said that, and he and Daniel didn't forget their lines but did it intentionally.
Answer: Yes. It's a common occurrence in a lot of movies for actors to forget their original lines so they improvise something to help move the scene along and not break character. Tom did this because he forgot what his original line was.
