Dear Phantom, you hav expressed in words the very feelings I have myself about FotR , its ending and the music! <BR> <BR>Never has any film fascinated and moved me so much as FotR. Sadly, I couldn't enjoy TTT half as much. Probably because there were too many deviations from the book (not so much that the plot was altered, but the characters...), and in the mean time I know and love the book too well not to mind. <P>I only hope that the Grey-havens scene will be as good as the ending of the FotR movie!! That is also bittersweet (as Gorwingel said), mixed sadness and hope .
