Felton acted the hell out of those scenes. It's unbelievable how much emotion he was able to convey with his eyes alone. Nnngh.
I read the books before I saw the movies, so maybe that colors my interpretation. Because I don't see this...
He isn't celebrating that he's repaired the cabinets - he's appalled, fearful, sickened and anxious at the knowledge of what it means that he has.
...in book!Draco at all. And by extension, I can't buy it in film!Draco, either. I think Draco's sole concern was for his safety and the safety of his family.
I thought the apple indicated that the cabinet was working, and Draco seemed pleased. But when he tried to transport a living being, the bird, the cabinet didn't work. And I thought Draco's angst was the result of knowing he was in trouble if he couldn't figure out how to make it work.
