Glenethor has just left Hobbiton.

Well, I should've said <I>female</I> instead of 'woman.'<BR> <P>Yes, that voice. The perfect voice for the opening narration, and as I said in another thread, when she says (re: Gandalf) "he has fallen into Shadow" it was all I could do to keep from bawling. Nevertheless, the tears came anyway...just quietly. That Voice pulled the emotional reaction right out of me against my will (I am a great big Man. I...don't....cry) <P>Most people who have reviewed the movie at another site have cited the portrayal of Galadriel as one of the negatives of the film. I still, respectfully, disagree.<P>Kuruharan, you make a persuasive argument, but I think that you will not be able to affect the impressions of people who have already seen the movie and who liked how Galadriel was portrayed. It was artistic license on the part of Jackson, but it worked for me. And, if you listen closely to her voice in that part, you can hear the original. The sound engineer merely used a pitch shifter with a bit of digital delay.<P>Pax,<P>Glenethor
