Well..what can I say? the one single thing that shocked me most in the film, was Faramir. He was one of my favourite characters in the book and had a truly golden heart. I just re-read the Two Towers before the film once again and I was really touched by the way Faramir behaved towards Frodo. He seemed to really understand the weight of his burden and see Frodo's real quality and wisdom. And then seeing him in the film?! I got the strangest feeling. It was like a nightmare, him suddenly behaving exactly like he shouldn't have!I almost started shouting at him in the theatre !<BR>This all leads me to another subject: why had they changed Frodo so much, too? I can't tolerate it. He shouldn't have been this possessed!<BR>I understand that it is necessary to make some changes- after all, you can't tell everything in three hours- but these changes were totally unmotivated in my opinion. <BR>I hope that they'll do something to "improve" Faramir in the last film, but for me it's too late. I just don't understand WHY they had to make these changes!!Somebody please give me a credible answer!!!<BR>p.s.I do not think either that this is the actor's fault.
