Nooooo! Not the Houses of Healing!!!

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>The similarities between these two characters makes it so much more plausible to see how they help each other overcome their grief and in the end fall in love...Of course all that was done in the Houses of Healing in the book, so seeing it on the big screen is unlikely...<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Yes, exactly! It's probably just me, but when I started reading RotK, I never even considered Éowyn and Faramir falling in love. Looking back on it, I can't believe I overlooked the possibility. It wasn't until I read the first few paragraphs of The Steward and the King that I realized how incredibly perfect they were for each other. But I guess it <I>would</I> be difficult to show all of that in the middle of the bigger story on the screen, even in a three-to-four hour movie.<P>Ah well, at least we know that some of their relationship will be shown. I don't think PJ is cruel enough to completely disregard the couple. Besides, he probably knows that there will be rioting in the streets if such a thing were to happen.
