Tom, the black forrest and Goldberry were being missed. I would have loved seeing Tom's house and Goldberry among the lilies....*sigh*<BR>And the Barrow-downs then !!!! What a pity! that would have been thrilling!<BR>Unfortunatly that was not shortcut to mushrooms ( wonder if i'm not obsessed with mushroom there! lol!) but shortcut to Bree!<BR>I guess it wouldn't have been convenient to cope with movie making stuffs and amenagement....<BR>Happily the books remains us to remind or to relive thoses exciting parts of the story <P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> The scene I was most fond of was the scene where boromir tries to take the ring from frodo. That's the point where it all collapses and the fellowship brakes<BR> <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>This scene is one of my favourites in the book! In the film i found it interesting.<BR>When i shut my eyes , what i recalled of it, is Frodo standing nearby a huge broken head statue which make me oddly think of the liberty statue in the planets of apes ( lol! ok, ok<BR>i should stop the cafeine!)<BR>Sean Bean did a nice job playing a smooth -tongued Boromir which gives to his betrayal a dramatic dimension * shivers*<BR>I have the feeling from my pov, the scene depends on Boromir's acting and behaviour and i was more sensitive for that character in the movie than in the book.<BR>This scene seems to foreshadow very well the heartbreaking scene of Boromir's death.<BR>Whereas in the book, from my pov the action is mainly based on frodo's feeling and pov, his deep distress understanding the ineluctable break of the fellowship<BR>and the evil work of the ring consumming Boromir and, if nothing is done, all his closed friends.<BR>That makes for the reader, Frodo's woe and "sacrifice" more touching.<P>That's all folks for today <P>Welcome to the Downs, Iaurlachien and happy posting!!!!!
