I agree; that part of the movie was heart-breaking. I read the books after seeing the movie, so I kept thinking "He has to make it! He can't die!" especially after he kept getting up again and again after being shot. It is just so sad the way each time he is shot it looks like his is in too much pain to get up, but he forces himself to fight for Merry and Pippin. And then when he talks to Aragorn before he dies...even though the whole speech was not in the book, I think it was excellent. Oh, I'm getting tears in my eyes as I think of it...
