About This Quote

In the movie "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", when Hagrid found out Harry was a wizard, he told him it had been 17 years since they met. In the movie, when they encountered a troll in the forest of Hogwarts, Hagrid was worried that Harry wouldn't be able to defeat it. However, Harry solved the problem by sending his pet owl Hedwig to wake him up, and then using a spell called Lumos to stun the troll. As a result, Hagrid decided to give Harry 17 Galleons so he could buy his own wand from Ollivander's Wand Shop in Diagon Alley. In "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", when Harry used a spell called Wingardium Leviosa on the book in front of him in Flourish and Blotts so he could get one more day of reading time before starting his new school year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Hagrid also gave Harry 17 Galleons for buying his new wand.
