Look closely at “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” at 6 minutes and 18 seconds and you will see a well-known but very, very well hidden character pass by!
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire offers the young wizard of the saga a whole new challenge: he is chosen to participate in the Triwizard Tournament even though he does not meet the admission conditions! Who registered it? For what ? So many questions that the film answers, even offering some tasty winks!
It is also on this film that Daniel Radcliffe filmed his most dangerous stunt!
Among these winks we find in particular the flashy appearance of one of the characters from the saga, but to see it, you need very good eyes… or a way to pause!
In order to capture this moment in flight, we advise you to pause the images at 6 minutes and 18 seconds very precisely to see llamas passing by on whose backs are several house elves, and among them, the most famous of all those present in the Harry Potter saga:
Warner Bros.
Yes, it’s Dobby who appears there, all happy, giving the viewer a look at the camera, even though you need a remote control to see him! Dobby has been freed from the Malfoy yoke since the end of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and he is now free to do whatever he wants… like riding a llama!
Warner Bros.
We can see this as a wink, because it is in this film that the subplot present in the book of Hermione’s creation of the Elf Liberation Aid Society, also nicknamed by Ron the “House Elf Liberation Front”.
The films chose to simply cut any reference to this event, because the main plot already ran for more than 2h35 of film. To the point that certain scenes in the plot will be shot and cut, then become cult, like this kiss!
Harry Potter 4 is the first and only feature film in the saga signed by Mike Newell, also director of Donnie Brasco and The Smile of Mona Lisa. It brings back some of the “light” of the first two films after a darker 3rd opus (The Prisoner of Azkaban) directed by Alfonso Cuarón.

This is also the time when the actors’ hair is much longer than in the previous opus, to the point that some teasing spectators will rename the film “Harry Potter and the Haircut”!
