Forgive me for this one: Frodo in the Tower of Cirith Ungol! (heh heh!) Simplest costume ever! <P>But seriously now, I must say that I agree with all those who picked Boromir, but I'm not sure it is the costume I'm staring at! I also LOVED the way the entire marking of the Uruk-Hai went. The impressing of the white hand on the face really bespoke a primitive, warrior marking. It gave more meaning to the Uruk-Hai than I had ever previously assigned to them. It sets them apart from the mere orcs, as well it should. And Lurtz is quite impressive, as well he would have to be to take down someone as imposing as Boromir! I wouldn't have a lesser orc on that job!<P>I also quite love Galadriel's dress, so sheer, yet not revealing, almost as if she herself was sheer beneath it, otherworldly. I read some time ago in a popular gossip magazine that Liv Tyler had said that none of the Elves wore underwear...hmmmm...part of the effect?<P>Cheers,<BR>Lyta<p>[ June 14, 2003: Message edited by: Lyta_Underhill ]
