The Dursleys in Harry Potter
The Harry Potter series is centered around themes of growth, bravery, inner strength, and loyalty. When Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone was published, the namesake character, Harry Potter was only 11 years old. While he was battling fantastic beasts and wizards at Hogwarts, he was facing an even more insidious and relatable threat at home – the villainous Dursley family.
The Harry Potter Movies Should Never Have Removed Dudley Dursley's Book Ending What Dudley’s Change of Heart Reveals About His Journey The opportunity to experience a character's growth from childhood to adulthood is rare; when it comes to Dudley Dursley, he had a tremendous transformation that should have been shown on screen.
HBO's Harry Potter TV Show Can Finally Do Dudley's Best Scene Justice Why HBO’s Adaptation Is the Perfect Medium for Dudley’s Arc Close ✕ Remove Ads Even within J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter books, Dudley didn’t get much page time because he was a minor character, uninvolved with the overall plot. Dudley did however play a large role in Harry’s backstory, making him who he is and even likely contributing to his sorting into Gryffindor.
✕ Remove Ads The most crucial scene that encapsulates Dudley’s growth and has the power to change the public perception of him is when he says his final goodbye to Harry. The juxtaposition between Dudley’s first scenes in the series, torturing Harry, and his last scene in the series, wishing Harry well, is an emotional example of how people can choose to grow up and be better.
