This surprised me a little, because the portion of Book Seven it covers is actually longer than the entirety of some of the earlier books.

'Deathly Hallows: Part 1' is a more faithful adaptation than any of the previous films. Dividing the seventh book into two movies has given a taste of what a miniseries might have been like. I was not one of the fans complaining, because I figured that as long as it wasn't a miniseries, the best approach was to interpret the story rather than present the events exactly as they appeared in the books. The two best films up to now-the third and the sixth-worked in part because they took the most risks, often departing substantially from the narrative of the books, to the consternation of many fans. The result was a movie that felt choppy and barely coherent, almost dreamlike. This was most painfully evident in the fifth movie, 'Order of the Phoenix,' which awkwardly attempted to fit the longest Potter book into just 2 hours and 15 minutes of film. They've all had to omit significant plot points, which has not only disappointed the more literal-minded fans but risked the integrity of the story. The movies so far have had difficulties showing enough of the books' events within a reasonable time slot to keep the story flowing.

Ever since the release of the first Harry Potter movie in 2001, I've wondered how a TV miniseries of the books would have fared.
