Boromir lovers unite! - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Jacob have I loved, Esau have I hated... I'll readily admit I love Faramir. And not just drooling over David Wenham (I only do this seldom, spelt his name wrong didn't I?). I love Faramir from the books, so kind, so...good, the wizard's pupil (a wise thing to be, even against his father's will), second only to Boromir in Gondor's army, and he (unlike Boromir, I might add) loved tales and songs of lore for more than just their battles. He was first to remind me of King David and fits the discription better than Boromir in my opinion.

*sigh* I just don't get it. Maybe I'm new at this whole "love" thing, but why love Boromir, why love anyone, for their faults?
