Premier: "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone"
Finally, Warner Bros' great success, based on the phenomenal books by the Scottish writer, J. K. Rowling, can be seen in Mallorca, as from the same day as the premier, not only in the Spanish version as was foreseen, but also in its original version subtitled in Catalan. After a long controversy which has surrounded the premiere due to the refusal by Warner to dub the film in Catalan, thanks to the pressure by the media and the negotiations carried out between Warner and the Departments of Culture of Catalunya and the Balearics, one of the copies subtitled in Catalan will be available to be shown at the Sala Rialto in Palma.
The film, directed by Chris Columbus and starring Daniel Radcliffe, tells the story of an orphan who lives with his uncle and aunt. One day the opportunity comes to study at the Hogwarts School of magicians. Bored of a family who ignores him and who does not love him, Harry decides to change his life. In this special school, the star discovers a new world full of magic and fantasy.
Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Richard Harris, Alan Rikman, John Cleese and Ian Hart complete the cast of the film, that was filmed in the British Gloucester Cathedral with music by John Williams.
