I think Elijah did ok with the part as it was written and I forgave him all that gawping into space for the cracks of doom and teh havens where i think he really caught the moment but I have to say - that the film frodo is very different and, I think a bit is lost with the age gap .... Ian Holm in the radio version caught "book" frodo better ... but then it was a very different script..
