DIFFINDO! Warner Brothers has announced that its adaptation of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be divided into two separate films, to be released in in November 2010 and May 2011. Via Daniel Radcliffe: "I think it's the only way you can do it, without cutting out a huge portion of the book. ... There have been compartmentalized subplots in the other books that have made them easier to cut -- although those cuts were still to the horror of some fans -- but the seventh book doesn't really have any subplots. It's one driving, pounding story from the word go."
So: artistic justice or craven profit-seeking? And where should the first film end?
