i also found that rather strange they way his mum was killed in themovie shows us that harry saw the whole thing ... but only when he witnessed cedrics death in bk 4 could he see them ???
in the book, it said that the spells that the wand performed were going in reverse, hense the reason harrys mom came out and then his father.....his father died first and then his mom.
i also agreed that there was an instance in the book that i was unsure of. in the second book we know that they started taken the carriages to the castle and it was made reference that harry saw nothing pulling the carriage.....but if you can only see the threstles(spelt wrong) after you have see someone die...the harry should have been able to see them all along.
