I love this scene it the one scene in which you can see Severus feel pain openly as they say: The eyes are the window to the soul. Such a deep pain filled gaze it wrenches me inside of course I am not counting his death scene or the Prince's tale scene either. We see the spy without his mask in here albeit briefly... Beautiful
I like this scene very much, because it shows the dark mood of everyone in this movie....
But after watching all HP movies and deleted scenes within one and a half week, I can tell, that WB did a very good job on cutting and choosing the scenes!! This may be one of the best scenes of all HP movies, but the one they chose instead is a bit darker and fits better to the following scene, and the one before.
@PhtmoftheOpra "In Noctem" was a song sung by the Hogwarts choir in 1997, conducted by Filius Flitwick, shortly before the school's headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, was killed by Severus Snape.
Also, in the context of the overall structure of the movie, I say that it fits the pacing quite well. It serves as the ultimate prelude to the death of one of the whole story's most important characters. When viewing the movie with this scene, it makes the tragedy of Dumbledore's death that much more unsettling; in your mind is the memory of his fall to his death, and in your ears is the memory of hauntingly beautiful melody acting almost as his dirge.
People suggest that this was removed from the movie because it reveals his true allegiance. I have to disagree. Snape knows he is about to KILL another human being, and I think it's perfectly reasonable AND human for him to seem conflicted. Couldn't that be a reason his expression is a pleading look? There is a multitude of emotions and ideas being expressed at this moment, and you need to look at it from a human standpoint and not a book-reader's.
I will never be able to understand why they take great scenes such as this out of the movies. Kind of like how they cut Dudley and Harry's conversation in Hallows Part 1 where Dudley tells Harry that he doesn't think he's a waste of space. I DON'T UNDERSTAND!!! WHY?!?!
@splat729 'why they cut scenes such as this out of the movies'... Well this was never in the book so it's not comparable to the Harry/Dudley thing, see my post below for why they needed to cut this out!
I dont think this scene fit in the movie, especially with Snape. I know we had all read the last book and we all knew what was going to happen, but if you would only watch the movie and see doubt and regret on Snape's face for something he is about to do, it doesn't fit in with his character as we knew in the Half Blood Prince. He is supposed to act cold about this murder and not with sentiment. Besides it also goes against the first scene of this movie, where he made the unbreakable vow!
I don't understand why people don't see why this scene was cut. It's obvious why, you can read the emotion all over Snape's face. Did we ever see that in the HBP book? No. Yes, it's a beautiful scene but it's far too revealing.
@JoRowlingRocks Agreed. Even though we all knew what was going to happen, we should remember that we never knew snape's story in the Half Blood Prince. Showing emotion at a time like this would have thrown his entire character off! And i'm pretty sure Alan Rickman asked them to cut this scene, seeing that the emotion was against his character and seeing that he was the only one who knew the story of Snape before it was even penned down!
Nonetheless beautifully shot scene and I love the song!
This. is. beautiful. When I watch deleted scenes like this I get disappointed because it really is beautiful and I see no reason why they should cut it out. Of course, you know, it might be too long or whatever, but still, this would've been good for the movie. ):
They actually have a watered down version of this seen in the movie, you can hear the music in the background and they use certain shots, but tbh you just really long for this scene in its entiriety.
The most recent Harry Potter film turned out to be extraordinary! My friend and I just now noticed it released online. We located the film on watch harry potter. us (no spaces)
This scene sends shivers up my spine...especially at the end with Ron and Hermione looking at the sky (reminds me of the back cover of the book) ... it just says that it's almost over and the time is coming
Half Blood Prince is one of my least favourite of the series but seeing this scene in the film would have rised it considerably, yet i understand why it wasn't included, shame : /
They deleted it because they think that people would known that Severus Snape is not a traitor so easily with it. But it's the greatest scene of this movie.
I love this scene and I love the song. Fortunateley it's on the OST. This is just great! I love the facial expressions of the people who are shown here...it makes me sad thinking of Snape who actually already knows that he soon will be the murderer of Albus Dumbledore!
@wateralchemist94 In the end of the video, Ron and Hermione looks to the windows, they are near each other. This scene is the same in Half Blood Prince book's back cover.
Frankly, I think this scene was very well put together and shouldn't of been cut. Also if you know anything about Snape, all you have to do is look at his expression...
Warner probably cut it because it was too long a time with nothing actually happening. Mood-setting and character examinations are something for arty movies, don't you know? When you're Warner all that matters is action!
@rubbersandro "because it would be to obviuos that Snape is good guy ^^": I know what you mean but everybody've known that Snape is a good man, it's obvious :)))
@revolverbangbang they deleted it because it gave away Snape's loyalties too soon (we weren't supposed to know until the 7th book for sure)... because of how awesome of an actor Alan Rickman is.
Ah Snape, best character in the Harry Potter franchise. Beautiful scene

Well actualy it could be the face of Snape thinking : "On which side am I ? Will I kill him ?"
The non readers then think he chose Voldemort's sight which was the point of it.
