Movie poster of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is the fourth movie of the series. In the movie Harry dreams about an event where an elderly man investigates a light that is shining in the house he cares for and overhears Lord Voldemort making plans with Wormtail. At Hogwarts a new teacher, the auror Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody is introduced. Harry, along with his classmates, notices that Moody behaves too strangely for a teacher. Dumbledore announces that the school will host the Triwizard Tournament, in which one wizard from each of three schools competes in three difficult tasks. The champions are selected by the Goblet of Fire, a magical cup into which the names of candidates are placed. Cedric Diggory is chosen to represent Hogwarts, Viktor Krum is chosen to represent Durmstrang Institute, and Fleur Delacour is selected to represent Beauxbatons Academy of Magic. The goblet unexpectedly chooses a fourth champion, Harry. As Harry is underage and therefore should have been ineligible to compete, Hogwarts teachers and fellow students alike are suspicious.In the first task, each of the four champions are instructed to retrieve a golden egg guarded by a dragon. Harry summons his broomstick and retrieves the egg, which contains information about the second challenge. In exchange for previous aid, Cedric Diggory provides him with a clue that prompts him to open the egg underwater. In last-minute preparation for the task, long-time friend Neville Longbottom provides Harry with Gillyweed, which allows him to breathe underwater. Harry is the first to arrive at the location, and finds Ron, Hermione, Cho Chang and Fleur's sister, Gabrielle Delacour, in suspended animation. Finishing last in an attempt to free all four at once, Harry is awarded second place for "outstanding moral fiber."
Ministry official Barty Crouch is found dead shortly after the second task. While waiting in Dumbledore's office, Harry learns that Barty Crouch had denounced his son when he realised he was a death eater, and sent him to Azkaban. In the third task all the champions had to find their way to the cup in a hedge maze. Harry and Cedric help each other and decide to call it a tie and touch the cup together. the cup turns out to be a portkey to Tom Riddle's grave where lord Voldemort kills Cedric and as he proceeds to kill Harry, Harry repels Voldemort's killing curse, a connection called Priori Incantatem occurs between their wands. Harry's wand forces Voldemort's to disgorge the spirits of the people Voldemort has most recently killed. Harry is briefly protected by the spirits and escapes with Cedric's body using the cup. Upon his return, Moody leads Harry back to the castle, where his questions make Harry suspicious. Upon the arrival of Dumbledore, Snape and McGonagall, Moody transforms into Barty Crouch Jr.; the Polyjuice Potion he kept in his flask wears off. The real Alastor Moody has been kept prisoner in a trunk.
