Everyone knows that Number 12 Grimmauld Place is Sirius's home. He even showed his family tree and mentioned that the place is "his mother's house".
大家都知道格里莫广场是小天狼星的家,他甚至展示了他的家谱,并提到那个地方是“他母亲的房子”。
But what is not specified in the movie is that Sirius lived in that house until he was 16 years old. His family is very concerned about the blood of the wizard. When he finally turned 16, Sirius had enough of them and moved out. Later, he was taken in by the Porters.
但电影中没有具体说明的是,小天狼星在16岁之前一直住在那所房子里。他的家人非常在意巫师的血统。当终于满16岁时,小天狼星受够了他们,搬了出去。后来,他被波特家收留。
In the film, we see the villa compressed, as magically as the Leaky Cauldron's walls leading into Diagon Alley. Before the appearance of 12, we see buildings side by side, the numbers 11 and 13 closely joined together.
在电影中,我们看到别墅被压缩了,就像破釜酒吧的墙壁通向对角巷一样神奇。在12号出现之前,我们看到的是并排的建筑,数字11和13紧密地联合在一起。
Number 12 doesn't exist. Only wizards looking for it can see it. Residents of the neighborhood, who are mainly Muggles, also noticed the difference in numbers. However, they simply thought it was a mistake in the architecture and never questioned it.
12号根本不存在,只有寻找12号的巫师才能看到。附近的居民主要是麻瓜,他们也注意到了数字上的差异。然而,他们只是简单地认为这是架构中的一个错误,从不质疑。
