Yes, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" and "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" refer to the same movie. The film is based on J.K. Rowling's book, which was originally published as "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" in the UK. When the book was released in the U.S., the title was changed to "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" to appeal more to American audiences, as "philosopher" in the title was thought to not resonate with them. The story and characters remain the same in both versions.

A first edition, first print of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" (also known as "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" outside the U.S.) sold for $13,000 at auction. This book, published in 1997, is highly sought after by collectors, especially if it has unique characteristics such as a dust jacket in pristine condition or specific printing errors that make it rare. The sale highlights the enduring popularity and cultural significance of the Harry Potter series.

The title "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was used for the U.S. release of the book and film to appeal to American audiences, as publishers believed that the term "Philosopher's Stone" might not resonate with them. The Philosopher's Stone is a well-known concept in alchemy associated with immortality and turning base metals into gold. However, the American title emphasizes the magical aspect of the stone, making it more accessible and intriguing to a wider audience. The change was made to enhance marketability in the U.S.

There are two versions of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" primarily due to differences in the title and some content between the U.S. and U.K. releases. The book was originally titled "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" in the U.K., but was renamed for the U.S. market to appeal to American readers, who were less familiar with the term "Philosopher's Stone." The film adaptation follows this distinction, leading to the two versions. Additionally, some minor cultural references and jokes were altered for different audiences.
