i agree with The Cool Took Gollum was always alot more sinister in the books, after i finished the lotr this year again i went back and read his chapter in the hobbit and it was very interesting looking into his character and behavour now that i had the extra information. I firmly believe that the ring meant all to him, it was his friend,father, master. And when frodo obtained the ring Frodo took on the master role, but his heart had been turned to darkness.
when he repented after the shelob encounter it shows just how strong he was, that after all these years he could still have some good in him....
or mabey he just felt guilty since frodo was probably the first person in a long time to show him any kindness
