A “Must See” Movie This film is worthy of an Academy Award because it demonstrates Harry, Ron, and Hermione’s perseverance to finish Dumbledore's work and find the rest of the Horcruxes to defeat the Dark Lord. Although Voldemort is their enemy they race against and uncover the existence of three most powerful objects in the wizarding world. They then find Sword of Godric Gryffindor, among the few objects able to destroy Horcruxes and they use it to destroy the locket. The Hallows are revealed to be three sacred objects: the Resurrection Stone, a stone with the power to summon the dead to the living world; the Elder Wand, an unbeatable wand; and an infallible Invisibility Cloak.
