SUMMARY
Scientific research is devoted to a critical review of the reproduction of the categories of space and time in the film version of J.K. Rowling's novel "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". The comparative analysis of verbal and non-verbal means of creating categories of time and space in the film narrative was carried out by creating a sample of data from film scripts (in English and Ukrainian languages) from a selected episode of the film. The paper examines the issue of regularities in the use of words and phrases, as well as gestures, facial expressions, noises, sounds, and musical accompaniment to depict time and space in a film narrative based on films of the fantasy genre (on the example of an adventure fantasy film about Harry Potter). The main cases of using verbal and non-verbal means are characterized (special attention is paid to chronemics and proxemics). The research material was: the film adaptation of the fourth book of adventures about the little wizard by J.K. Rowling "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" in the original language (director - M. Newell, 2005) and the Ukrainian dubbing of this film by the studio "Так Треба Продакшн" to order vod-platform sweet.tv in 2020. As a result of the research, it was established that, firstly, the film narrative has its own specific features that distinguish it from the classical narrative; secondly, that both verbal and non-verbal means of creating categories of space and time have a huge impact on the construction of the entire film in general.
Key words: narrative, film narrative, verbal means, non-verbal means, discourse, chronemics and proxemics.
