Actually I was very taken aback by the sounds he was making on Weathertop. I really wanted to tell the character to buck up and get a grip. He sounded like he was in the grip of a monumental asthma attack, to me.<BR>But that's one of the parts of the movie I've never gotten used to. I wanted to see the wounded but still strong and noble Frodo from the books. Not the goopy-eyed, at death's door, wheezing, helpless Frodo.<BR>And the less said about that whole scene with Arwen on the riverbank, the better.
