Talking about the films, one of the most moving moments for me was at the Council of Elrond in FotR when they are all arguing over what to do and Frodo's small voice pipes up "I'll take the Ring". Gandalf's expression just says it all: Despair that it is Frodo who has to undertake this task together with a knowledge and understanding that it can be no other. I thought that Ian McKellen captured the feeling perfectly in just one expression.
