Yes.

Wasn't there a variation of the tale where Tillion attempted to come to her aid, and was scarred as well?

By the same the same token, I'd love to see a "grunt's-eye-view" film, showing the perspective of the average Gondorian soldier.

It's too bad I can't visually show you how I'd change it (hopefully for the better).
