Last full day at leakycon

And a topic has come up in a few discussions of the film

I'm not the only one, it seems, who wondered if Harry and Ginny were divorced or at least separated by the time of the epilogue, and just accompanying the kids together on such an important day.

Seriously, they don't interact, bump against each other, share a word or a glance, or anything atall in the epilogue. Draco is flirtier with Harry than Ginny is. And I say this as someonewho's been married 15 years -when my husband and I walk soewhere, we bump shoulders or hold hands or share a glance...

And Harry did that with Hermione and Ron. But not Ginny.

The film could have sold me on the two of them as a married couple - or even that Harry was pining for her. But I didn't get a hint of that at all.

Love your icon, and, yeah. The Salon magazine review of the film said this:

And I guess Harry's so-called paramour Ginny Weasley (Bonnie Wright) makes an appearance, but not so you'd notice it. (Potter fans hate me for this one, but the submerged sexual tension between Harry, Hermione and Ron is a central element of this universe, and one Rowling herself seems barely aware of. Ginny is a transparent and inadequate attempt to defuse it.)

Oh, Salon. Some fans, maybe, but very definitely not all..
