[The Saucepan Man]

OK, let's put this little rumour out of its misery before it goes any further.<P>"Suicide mission" is an expression used to refer to a mission that it is exremely dangerous and quite likely to result in the death of those who undertake it. It does not mean that all such persons will automatically die on the mission.<P>So, it does not follow from the fact that Faramir is sent on a "suicide mission" by his father that he actually dies. Indeed, there are many shots of Gandalf riding out to "rescue" Faramir and his surviving troops on their return from this mission.<P>I have seen nothing to suggest that Faramir dies at any other point in the film. Indeed the only other Faramir "spoilers" that I have seen suggest that he is rescued from his father's pyromaniac plot by Pippin and Gandalf, as in the Book.<P>So I think that this rumour really is no more than that: a rumour with no grounding in fact.
