Faramir personality change

[Elentári_O_Most_Mighty_1]

Duesche? Huh??<P>Well, I thought it was because of Arwen needing more screen time. Randomness, I know. But this is how I reached this conclusion:<BR>~In the films Arwen seems to be a little more impressionable. Elrond is trying to persuade her to leave.<BR>~Cut to Galadriel who knows of Arwen's plight. She speaks to Elrond to ask why he would forsake men in their need and forget the old alliances.<BR>Hey presto, an Elven army sent to Helm's Deep.<BR>~A little while later she says men are weak.<BR>Cut to Faramir, and suddenly, when we see it for the first time (and have read the books) a little bit of fear enters your mind. What is PJ going to do?? <BR>~Faramir is the 'weak' man, and takes Frodo prisoner. Etc...until...<BR>~In Osgiliath (what a waste of screen time, when instead of that and instead of having the ambush and Aragorn fall off the cliff, and instead of having the Ents be tricked- but then Pippin would need to be a tad more sensible all the way through and not need to use this opportunity to 'grow up- there could be the proper interrogation of Frodo by Faramir. And none of this need have happened.), the Nazgul comes, and Frodo offers the Ring. For some reason this means that Faramir feels he must let Frodo walk into Mordor. Senseless, really.<P>But it is worth pointing out, as someone said on another thread, that Faramir did not want the Ring for himself. He wanted it for his father, to prove himself to him. I think we will see a bit more of this in the EE.<P>Well, it made sense in my head...
