Harry Potter movies too!!

Per www.jointogether.org:
"Alcohol use is highly prevalent in the latest Harry Potter movie, with characters frequently quaffing mead and other forms of alcoholic beverages in key scenes, the New York Times reported July 28.

Key figures in "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" are shown drinking, including a scene where Harry himself engages in celebratory imbibing with his professors. Hermoine, Neville, and Ron are also shown drinking at various points in the film. Hagrid, their mentor, gets drunk and passes out."

I have yet to see the movie but there is said to be a specific correlation to Hermoine and how alcohol seems to keep her from being so tightly wound. This is exactly the perspective that Alcohol Free America wants to combat. Hermoine would be much better served to find a less destructive means of dealing with her stress.
