''Magic Beyond Words: The J. K. Rowling Story'' is a [[Made for TV Movie|Made For TV]] [[Biopic]] dedicated to, surprisingly enough, ''[[Harry Potter]]'' author [[J. K. Rowling]], played here by Poppy Montgomery of ''[[Without a Trace]]'' fame. It originally aired on the Lifetime Network on July 18, 2011.
Line 8 ⟶ 7:
The movie received mixed reviews, which is pretty good by [[Lifetime Movie of the Week|normal Lifetime standards]]. See a trailer [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRBnjgz1ygg here]. Watch the whole movie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Y_RxNtfNlg here].

* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: This is probably the most notable factual error in the film. While Rowling is blonde today, she was a redhead during the time period much of the film takes place. Nevertheless, the film portrays her as blonde throughout. Whether the filmmakers [[Did Not Do the Research]] or [[Viewers are Morons|thought she wouldn't be recognizable enough otherwise]] is unclear.
* [[California Doubling]]: Canada doubles for Great Britain, Portugal, and (very briefly) New York. There are ''a lot'' of [[Establishing Shot|Establishing Shots]] composed of [[Stock Footage]].
