True, Boromir's costume was a real standout. Incredibly good looking but functional, too. His horn wasn't exactly as I imagined it, though, a bit too rustic and uncrafted. Didn't really fit in with the rest of his elaborate gears. By the way, how did Aragorn recognise the sound his horn made when (in the schmovies) he hadn't heard it before?? Chalk up one more mistake.<P>One of my favourite costume bits from TTT was the first time we see the Rangers of Ithilien, with their cloaks and masks, hidden in the trees with their bows. So cool, and just the way I think they should have been. I think bookFaramir would have wasted movieFaramir in a fight, though, and I would have been keen to see some more of his battle prowess.
