The other part of that portion of the movie that hits me hard is when, right after Boromir has died, Legolas walks up and they show his face for a brief moment. I can usually handle it until then, but I totally lose it there. He's so noble, so pure, so beautiful...and so sorrowful. It's a perfect portrayal of elvish grief.

This weekend (after seeing it again) I really heard the conversation between Boromir, Pippin and Merry when Boromir was teaching them sword fighting. Listen to it when after Boromir accidentally hurts Merry, and they charge him "for the Shire!" and "ow my arm". It is really good.

I love the part with Pippin and Merry crying after Gandalf's fall. But the look on Frodo's face, with the one tear falling, says it all.

I also cry when Boromir's only concern when dying is "they took the little ones..." I think Jackson did a great job developing the love that Boromir has for the Pippin and Merry (how could you not)

Jackson is also doing a great job developing the love that Aragorn will feel for Merry and Pippin. Afterall, he will have them buried next to him. That sums it all up.

Merry and Pippin are comic-relief, but I have always found them extremely funny in the books. I can't wait to see Two Towers and Return of the King.

Also, everyone, check out e-bay under LOTR-movie posters. There are quite a few. I just ordered one with Aragorn, and another with the hobbits hiding and the black rider over them.

I like everyone posting the little things they saw. It makes for a much richer viewing. Jackson didn't miss any details... and the details are going to pay dividends later.

Well, I guess I'm going to have to see it again.
