Naturally, I loved the scene where Gollum sez scornfully that he had been sneaking! I loved the beginning. Smeagol was clearly such a naive, simple soul, and then we see him coming apart. It's like mental illness and addiction and disease--it's so haunting when the fish song from "TT" is cruely echoed like that....the music was sooo good there, too. They really ought to give an Oscar to Andy Serkis. I was floored to see Sam actually carry Frodo. It was so cool. I love when Eowyn said "I am no man!" That also got applause where I was. And I think I'll end by saying that the scariest guy in the film for me was the painted and decorated and weird-looking man on the oliphaunt. He looked way savage.
