Diamond18: Please don't be angry. I have a horrible habit of belting out my opinions with no thought of others. Sorry.<P>Ok you caught me! I forgot he said:<P>"Dead? How? When?"<P>Anyway, I've seen the movie three times already (yes, I am pathetic, in a good way ), and have paid very close attention each time. My point was that there were two large pauses where Frodo could have had some good comebacks like in the book.<P>****************************************** *<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>I can't remember exactly, but I thought that Frodo did say more in that scene than "Dead, how?" <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Frodo also introduced himself and Sam in this scene, and mentioned the Company. I was merely nitpicking a section of that scene.<P>Oh, and Faramir asked, "Were you a friend of Boromir?"<P>And Frodo thinks (It would have been cool if here they had a flash back of Boromir attacking Frodo. That's what he was thinking about in the book at the time of that question), then says, "Yes. For my part." <P>***********************************<P>I don't mean to sound like I hate the movie, or anything. I loved it! I'm just very cynical sometimes. <BR> <BR>What I meant as 'terrified' is better explained when <B>Child</B> said he looks like 'the victim.'<P>It seems to me that Elijah Wood has a hard time portraying certain emotions on his face. Maybe it's those purty blue eyes. But, hey- he certainly is good looking when he smiles! <P>~TolkienGurl<p>[ December 23, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]
