Sting

When I first read the novel as a troubled teenager I, too, identified with Éowyn. I still do, and I still think she is perhaps the most convincing character in Lord of the Rings. She is confused and passionate and uanble to hide her emotions, but at the same time she is enormously brave and just. <P>This humanity is also the reason that I always liked Boromir, and to a certain point also identified with him. I look upon him as a strong and noble person, who struggles with his doubt and personal desires and finds it hard to do the right thing. Who has not been in that dilemma? I always thought it wonderful that his death was so heroic, and I think this was conveyed beautifully, though also horribly, in the film.
