Did the Evenstar break? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I'm not so sure that he would have left it in if the idea was that it had been broken as they were pretty good at catching those. For example in the scene at the Grey Havens where Sean Astin forgot to put his waistcoat back on after a break they reshot it to make sure it was continuous.

I think that is just a vision shown to him by Sauron, as there do seem to be a few of those involving Aragorn and Arwen in the film so it fits.

True, although if you look closely (I think it's the last shot of Sam watching the boat leave while Merry & Pippin are crying in the background) you'll see that they did leave in a shot of a vest-less Sam. But on the whole they're pretty good about those things.

For managing only the odd mistake out of 3 huge films I think they did pretty well!
But I'm just here again because of something Assasin said right at the beginning. I thought that they focused on Aragorns chest and that demonstrated that the pendant wasn't there, ot am I missing something?

Not to complicate matters, but when Arwen has the vision of her son, she sees him wearing it.

It may only be a symbol of that the boy is a part of her.

Isn't that before Aragorns vision?

Yes, but if Eldarion is really wearing it (and it's not just symbolic like Dûrbelethwen suggested) then that would mean it did not break and was still around when he was born.
