OK, I'm embarrassed! Galadriel gave Frodo the phial? I've seen the film 4 or 5 times (I've forgotten which) !! Clearly I was too busy staring at Elijah's eyes. Perhaps I should have made it clear that I love the film for what it is - only now I'm rediscovering how much was changed, and I can't see the purpose of all the changes. We'll have to agree to differ over Boromir's death scene, though.
