Snape Picture of the Week #1

I really shouldn't have to explain this, but every Sunday I'll post a picture of Snape and my opinion on it. It might be a movie still, a meme, etc.

This is from The Philosopher's Stone('Sorcerer's Stone' in U.S.) during Harry's first Quidditch match. It's before Harry's broom starts going out of control, when the camera is just panning over the Proffesors' Box for theatrical purposes. I think it's important they did that, because it gives us a few seconds worth of Snape, who looks pretty suspicious in this still. He looks like he's anticipating something, and makes us wonder what he's up to. That makes it easier for us to believe he was the one cursing Harry and then feel sorry later for blaming him when we find out it was Quirrel. Speaking of which, if you pay close attention in that scene, Quirrel's not even paying attention, so wtf?
Either way, I love this picture because we get to see Snape in a scarf and his hair blowing in his face, which makes him even SEXIER... How is that even possible?
