like if something bad happens
In case of Boromir, something good happens - though he be deadly wounded, he repents, releasing himself from the desire of the ring [=power], ackowledges the authority of the King (again hinted at as a Christ-symbol figure). It is very well done in the movie, I believe - spectator is forced to tears on both sorrow and joy grounds. I just would that Aragorn/Legolas lament for Boromir would have been included too (hey, EE owners, is it in EE?) But one can't have everything, I suppose

But I'm off topic. My answer on topic is quite laconic - of course, such things should be paid attention to, but it should not be done in a garish way. From recently watched movies, to bring you an example of virtuous performance, I recall a duel with O Ren Shi in Kill Bill (part 1) in a garden. It snows, and blood shows on white garment of O-Ren,plus some kind of water pomp beats a rhytm to the fight. Sends shiver down one's spine, really.
