<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I am sorry but I disagree. I did not like Sean's portrayal of Boromir. In the book, the Boromir is a very good guy until his one on one with Frodo. His character is seen as much more warm than Sean Bean did portray it. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I think I must have read a different book to the one you did. To my recollection in the FOTR Boromir is nearly always described in negative terms. Reflecting upon his pride for example.<P>He is only really seen in a more positive light in the later two books through the recollections of Pippin and Faramir.<P>For me Sean Bean was the best performer in the films. Much as I really, really love Ian McKellen's performance as Gandalf I felt he only fully matched up to the book's Gandalf.<BR>Whereas Sean Bean improved on the books Boromir.
