In the book, of course, he also hunts and then interegates Gollum which takes him to Mirkwood. The film Gandalf must do the same thing even though it isn't shown as he speaks of looking for the creature Gollum to Frodo upon his return. We have to assume he found him as he knows his story and that he was captured and tortured in Mordor.<P>The animated map that accompanies the special edition (which I think is really cool) only shows him going to Minas Tirith but his actual journey in the film must be all over hell's half-acre. I guess they didn't show this as it would have simply been too much, though it is interesting to note that the map does have him going to Edoras first, upon escaping Isengard. I guess that was something for the book readers.<P>H.C.
