[Guinevere]

I like the character of Frodo very much in the book (Though my favourite is Sam), but I had no visual image of him in my mind before seeing the movie (with a good deal of scepticism) I think that Elijah Wood impersonates Frodo ideally - for me, Frodo will forever have Elijah`s face now. Without many words, his extremely expressive face and his soulful eyes convey Frodos feelings, fears and doubts in a way that touches the heart.<BR>I agree with Airetauriel that in the movie, Frodo`s part was belittled and he`s more passive than in the book. In a film it is, of course, much easier to display active and fighting heroes! But Frodo`s strength (i.e. resistance to the ring) is just that he is so modest and unselfish. He has absolutely no ambition and desire for power or honour. He hasn`t put himself forward for this quest and he undertakes it only because he loves his country and wants to save it, even if he has to sacrifice himself.
