Storyline:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and final adventure in the Harry Potter film series, is a much-anticipated motion picture event to be 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.–Warner Bros.

About Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 Movie:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 is a fantasy adventure film directed by David Yates and produced by David Heyman, David Barron, and J. K. Rowling. It is the first of two cinematic parts based on the 2007 novel Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling.
It is the sequel to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) and the seventh installment in the Harry Potter film series. The film stars Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter, with Rupert Grint and Emma Watson, respectively, reprising roles as Harry’s best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.
Initially, this was meant to be a single movie, but due to the size of the book and the decision to avoid leaving out or squeezing in any content, the producers decided to split it into two films: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 and Part 2 (2011).
This Part 1 was filmed back-to-back with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 from February 19, 2009 to June 12, 2010. The first official picture from the first film was released on 1 December 2009, showing Harry, Ron, and Hermione in a London street.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 was released in 2D cinemas and IMAX formats in the United Kingdom and in the United States on November 19, 2010, by Warner Bros. Pictures. The film received positive reviews with critics praising the performances, cinematography, musical score, and visual effects.
In the film’s worldwide opening weekend, Part 1 grossed $330 million, the third-highest in the series, and the highest opening of 2010, as well as the eighth-highest of all time. With a worldwide gross of $960 million, Part 1 became the third-highest-grossing film of 2010, the tenth-highest-grossing film of all time at the time, and the third-highest-grossing Harry Potter film in terms of worldwide totals.
The film was nominated for Best Art Direction and Best Visual Effects at the 83rd Academy Awards. It is the second film in the Harry Potter film series to be nominated for a Visual Effects Oscar (the previous one being Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban). The film was long-listed for eight different categories, including Best Cinematography, Production Design, and Original Score, at the 64th BAFTA Awards, and ultimately was nominated for Best Special Visual Effects and Make-up.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 was released on a single and double disc DVD and 3-disc Blu-ray combo pack on 11 April 2011 in the UK and on 15 April 2011 in the US.
