Character Analysis
Coming of Age
Neville, before growing up and getting hot, served mainly as a source of comic relief in the early Harry Potter films. He falls over at random times and makes funny faces.
But we can't ignore a sly bit of double entendre Cuarón sneaks into the movie. After Neville is almost devoured by his textbook, Ron gives him a bit of advice:RON: You're supposed to stroke it.
Uh-huh. "Stroke it." What teenage boy hasn't heard that one?
