Thought so! <P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> But a lot of that flak comes from adament Farimir Movie dis-likers <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>The problem is that there are very few, if any, fans of the Books who would consider Film Faramir to be a more worthy and noble character than Book Faramir, even among those (like me) who like the Films and feel that Faramir's character in TTT works well. This is because Book Faramir manifestly is the more worthy and noble character.<P>But you are not asking which is the more worthy and noble Faramir. You are asking which one people prefer and my answer to that is I prefer Book Faramir in the context of the Books and Film Faramir in the context of the Films?
