+Team Clewis There have been some speculations that the three brothers correspond to Harry Potter, Severus Snape, and Lord Voldemort, with Harry corresponding to Ignotus (who lives to an old age), Severus corresponding to Cadmus (whose loved one dies), and Lord Voldemort corresponding to Antioch (power hungry). This also corresponds with the order of the ages of the brothers. An extension of this theory suggests that Albus Dumbledore corresponds to Death, the figure that all three brothers meet on their journey. When a user on Twitter asked J.K. Rowling what her favourite fan theory was, she responded with this one saying, "It's a beautiful theory and it fits." Alternatively it can be argued that Dumbledore is the third brother since he both greeted death voluntarily and handed the cloak to Harry as the story states that the 'father' gave the cloak to his 'son'. Father here being Dumbledore and Son being Harry. Another possible interpretation may be that the role of Snape as Cadmus is replaced by Albus Dumbledore, whose death was caused by attempting to use the Stone, especially since ultimately it was his choice to end his life. So Dumbledore is Death, the second and third brother, AND also has the Elder wand.

that scene was the LAST thing I was expecting when I sat on the couch of a movie theater. I mean, OH MY GOD! when I was reading the book, I imagined what Hermione was reading, as for the movie, I expected either her pure narrative with the camera going here and there or actors doing the scene. but them came this Tim Burton-esque animation that left me gawking. And actualy imagining the director wandering the studios imagining how to do this scene, walks by Tim Burton going on an opposite direction and simply pulls him by the collar saying "oooh, hang on, Tim, I got something special to ask ya".

+MrKlausbaudelaire So do you know that this is definitely stop motion then? I've always wondered as the effects put over, like the slow moving cape, the paper looking background and the lighting make me wonder if it was shot with stop motion puppets and then had the effects added in layers to the footage afterwards, or if it was mostly constructed in a 3D modeling program with just lighting and slight effects added after. What do you think?

@MrKlausbaudelaire

Catherine Buckley definitely 3D, stop motion taks too much time and resources to make this kind of flowing perfection, like, YEARS. Besides, You can find on internet the 3D models of the character :)

Tell me about it, I'm at Uni learning to do it! :D Cool thought so, but it is interesting that they've made such good resemblance in the puppets for the Diagon Ally show in Orlando. Sweet, I'll have to have a look, because it may require less resources and less time in filming, but to rig characters to more like that on a 3D program must be insane. Making a ball bounce realistically is hard enough. :)

This scene was unexpected but brilliantly done. The director took a risk, and it was one the best scenes of all 8 movies.

This was such a lovely sequence, both in the animation, as well as Emma's reading of the story. There are 2 hour movies that don't tell as good a tale as these three minutes did.

"He then greated Death as an old friend, and went with him gladly to part life as equals." As did Harry when he chose to walk into the dark forrest. J.K. Rowling is a genius, and I'm convinced her books will keep surprising and impressing me forever. Thank you Joanne for enriching my life, and showing me the magic of books.

Geoffrey Caron-Lormier Yeah it is :-)

The third brother had no doubt earned Death’s respect, not having squandered his gift like his brothers did. It’s a testament to how humble the third brother was when he passed the cloak to his son and went with Death willingly.

I think that when it says that he didn't take of the cloak for the rest of his life and then passed it on to his son that it's not supposed to be taken literally. The cloak of invisibility was a very wise choice for the third brother and showed us just what a special person he is, smart, humble, not power hungry, all sorts of things. Maybe by saying that he didn't take of the cloak it's meant that he never changed and remained himself.

Voldemort is a descendant of the second brother, and Harry is a descendant of the third brother. So that technically makes Voldemort and Harry Potter related.

This story is so creepy but so incredibly meaningful and amazing at the same time, i absolutely love it.

One died for power. (Tom Riddle.) One died for lost love. (Severus Sneep.) And one greeted death like an old friend. (Harry Potter.)

The Tale of The Three Brothers (Transcrição) 1 - There were once three brothers who were traveling along a lonely winding road at twilight. In time, the brothers reached a river too treacherous to pass. But being learned in the magical arts, the three brothers simply waved their wands, and made a bridge. Before they could cross however, they found their path blocked by a hooded figure. 2 - It was Death, and he felt cheated. Cheated because travelers would normally drown in the river, but death was cunning. He pretended to congratulate the three brothers on their magic, and said that each had earned a prize for having been clever enough to evade him. 3 - The oldest asked for a wand more powerful than any in existence, so Death fashioned him one from an elder tree that stood nearby. The second brother decided he wanted to humiliate Death even further and asked for the power to recall loved ones from the grave, so Death plucked a stone from the river and offered it to him. 4 - Finally, Death turned to the third brother. A humble man, he asked for something that would allow him to go forth from that place without being followed by Death, and so it was that Death reluctantly handed over his own cloak of invisibility. 5 - The first brother traveled to a distant village where with the elder wand in hand, he killed a wizard with whom he had once quarreled. Drunk with the power that the elder wand had given him, he bragged to his invincibility. But that night, another wizard stole the wand and slit the brother’s throat for good measure, and so Death took the first brother for his own. 6 - The second brother journeyed to his home where he took the stone and turned it thrice in hand. To his delight, the girl he had once hoped to marry before her untimely death appeared before him. Yet soon she turned sad, and cold for she did not belong in the mortal world. Driven mad with hopeless longing, the second brother killed himself so as to join her, and so Death took the second brother. 7 - As for the third brother, Death searched for many years but was never able to find him, only when he attained a great age did the youngest brother shed the cloak of invisibility and give it to his son. He then greeted Death as an old friend and went with him gladly, departing this life, as equals.

i love the third brother. he was genuine.

The brothers remind me of the three suitors from Merchant of Venice. One was proud, one was foolish, and one was wise. And just like here, the two suitors ended up with nothing but heartache, but the wise third suitor won the lady's hand.

Dear god, I completely forgot how much this story chilled me. How it connects with the characters...and the morals behind it. The animation is flawless. And Emma Watson can tell me stories any day.

Watching this scene in the theater was so damn captivating. I was drawn in by Hermione's voice and stayed for the animation. Then after this scene was over, I was back in the boring part of the movie and so fucking pissed.

Not sure which I like more, the story of the three brothers or Hermione's narrating

I know people have compared the three brothers to Voldemort (died seeking power), Snape (died for lost love), and Harry (greeted Death as an old friend, as well as the father-to-son inheritance), but I just realized how the three shadow characters resemble them appearance-wise as well. I absolutely loved this part of the movie - the perfect cherry on top for the art-and-tale lover. Wonderfully haunting animation; simply beautiful.

I loved the animation, and was happy that they included it. Emma Watson was a perfect narrator for the tale.

This part of the movie was really exquisite, a beautiful surprise really

0:05 "Midnight, our mum always told us," said Ron ... Hermione shot him a look of annoyance "Sorry, I just think it's a bit spookier if it's midnight!" said Ron. "Yeah, because we really need a bit more fear in our lives," said Harry before he could stop himself. xD

This scene is probably the best part out of the entire series of movies. It's very wel done.

The Tale of the Three Brothers was a beautiful and wonderful adaption. I love the whole story, and when Luna's dad (can't spell it) draws the actual sign of the Deathly Hallows, ah, I just love Harry Potter.

she did that with all three for example one died for power- voldemort one died for love-snape one greeted death as an old friend-harry shes brilliant :)

Such a beautiful story, still brings tears to my eyes

Yes Emma... please tell us a story.

Gives me the chills every time

The best bit of the movie. Beautifully done.

I love how they portrayed this in the movie. It was very amazing. Thanks so much for posting. :)

One died for power-Castiel. One died for love-Sammy. One greeted death like an old friend-Dean.

This was the most inventive thing warner brothers did with these movies.

the first two brothers ended up paying for their pride anyway. the third one made a simple but humble request. death is cunning indeed.

gave me the fucking goosebumps.

what a philosophical tale, i wouldnt be surprised if this was a take on something Plato once recited so long ago.

this animation is probably my favourite scene out of all the harry potter movies. it gives me goosebumps

I Loved this, the animation is smooth and visually interesting, I loved Death's design, and the transitions were done expertly

I like how out of all the Deathly Hallows, the Invisibility Cloak is a part of Death, the others were made to doom the brothers.

Soooo many goosebumps right now, it's not even funny! Thanks for uploading this wonderful animation to this amazing story! :)

this is so beautiful it makes me cryyy! favourite part of the entire series ever.

This part of the movie really surprised me, there was never anything as unique in the other films, probably one of my favourite parts :)

This was so beautiful, I'm crying😭😭👏👏

It's cool that they're making a tie-in with Star Wars. General Grevious plays a great Death.

Emma Watson could literally narrate a 3 hour documentary about cans and I would be interested in it.

loved this scene, thats why I am here watching this instead of looking for the movie.

Hermione's voice....

The memories where it's revealed Dumbledore asked Snape to kill him is in Deathly Hallows 2 just before Harry sacrifices himself as a horcrux.

Hermione narrates so well, Her voice sort of sounded like it belonged to the story

Wow, that was amazing!

That was so beautiful.

The cloak got passed from Ignotus Pevrell, the youngest brother to the Potters, where James' father gave it to Harry.

Excellent animation and storytelling by Emma.

Are there anymore videos like this one? The animation is just so spooky/cool/haunting/lovely and Hermoine/Emma reading this is so just comforting, I'd love to find more. ~Tiffy

Stunning!

the music is haunting...one of the best parts in the movie

This is one of my favorite stories ever.

This gives me chills. I love it.

Thanks for posting HD. Fezzes are also cool.

Goosebumps everytime.

The second and third brother always gets me😭

Everytime I watch this, it's giving me shivers

beautiful! good job hermoine!

that was beautiful, bravo to the person who made this, good work! ill be waiting for more XD, keep it up!!! XD

thing is, the third brother was smart about it, he found a way to live his life long enough before Death took him when his time was near.

Beautiful animation, and well-written!

I love this part of the movie. Reminds me of shadow play, or shadow puppetry. Not the kind where you use your hands to make shapes, but the kind with cutouts behind a white screen, where a bright light shines through, casting shadows of the puppets onto the screen.

The animation is really beautiful on this xx

one of the best scenes in the series!!!!

Ignotus Peverell (The thrid brother) is Harry's ancestor, the cloak was passed down through generations up to James Potter. Albus Dumbledore wanted to examine the cloak so he asked James to give it to him, James did so but when James and Lily were killed by Voldemort Albus was left with it. On Harry's first christmas at Hogwarts Albus Dumbledore gave it to him annonymously saying "Use it well"

It's our choices that show us who we really are.

Voldemort - died for power Snape - died for lost love Harry - the one who greeted to death like an old friend

I love this story! I read it to my siblings all the time :3

Such a genius. Totally deserve all that success.

They did such a good job.

Ok, I really love HP, but if this story excisted, and HP not, I would still love this story so much. Amazing!
