I suppose it is all those who can relate to what Frodo feels at that moment and others that really doesn't allow the word "overacting" to enter my mind. The only problem I had with Frodo was the draining of his power by reordering and structuring certain scenes and making the Ring's influence and Frodo's mindset subtly different by the same measure. I'm sure Elijah had to draw on experiences and remembered feelings much as you all have recounted, at least to some extent, when preparing Frodo's character in his mind. I wonder what he thinks when he watches it in slow motion? "Gee, Peter! It looks like I'm constipated!" <P>Cheers,<BR>Lyta
