This week marks the birthday of one of the most beloved fictional characters of all time—Harry Potter!
To celebrate the Boy Who Lived, Bella Efstratis is joined by her fellow Potterhead bestie, Bailey Katler, for an incredible Harry Potter episode!
Introducing our Top 3 Harry Potter Films:

• First, we go back to where it all began with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone (2001), the film that introduced us to the the magic of the Wizarding World and its wonderful characters.
  
• Next, we dive into our favorite, and the BEST film in the series, the unforgettable Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004).
  
• Lastly, we discuss the visually stunning and emotionally scarring Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009).

In this episode, we discuss what the series means to us, share our favorite characters and scenes, & Bailey reveals a fascinating art history fun fact hidden in the series' production design!

Let us know what you think of the episode and tell us your Top 3 Harry Potter films!
