Personally, I think the success of selling Eowyn and Faramir has nothing to do with that couple and everything to do with how you resolve Eowyn and Aragorn. If this relationship is resolved before Eowyn meets Faramir and, for goodness sakes, before Eowyn meets Arwen, then having her fall in love with Faramir can be done very quickly and subtly with just a few words, a look, a touch. It doesn't need to be much.<P>In TTT, Jackson has built a tension between Aragorn and Eowyn that I have every faith he will still attempt to resolve. Whether he will be successful in doing that or not remains to be seen but, in my opinion, there is nothing in Miranda Otto's comments that weigh on this one way or the other.<P>H.C.
