didn't work effectively on Bellatrix because Harry lacked the sadistic pleasure required for the torture curse; his "righteous anger" wasn't enough, and he couldn't genuinely enjoy inflicting pain, even though he was furious after Sirius's death, a critical difference from later instances where he could cast it effectively.

Yes, in the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 movie, Ron casts a green spell at Nagini that looks like the Killing Curse (Avada Kedavra), but it bounces off her protective enchantments, proving it wasn't the actual curse or that Nagini had powerful shields, unlike the books where Ron never successfully casts an Unforgivable Curse, but the movie implies he tried. In the lore, Nagini, as a living Horcrux, could theoretically be destroyed by Avada Kedavra, but Voldemort protected her, and the spell failed, leading to her actual destruction by Neville in the book, or by Neville with the Sword of Gryffindor in the film.
