<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>After watching this version I came away with a much better understanding as to the behaviour of some of the characters. For example, after watching this version and seeing the interaction between Faramir, Boromir, and their father Denethor (yes, as rumoured, Denethor makes his first appearance here!), I walked away with a much better understanding of just why Boromir behaved the way he did in The Fellowship of the Ring, and why Faramir's character was so much different than in the books. This is just one example of many where things such as family dynamics were expanded upon and did an excellent job in giving the characters more depth. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Will this help to justify Faramir for most of you? I feel I was the only one who actually saw the good side of Faramir's character change. Will any of you give a little on the angry front after seeing this, or still be super mad with PJ?<P>I suppose a lot of you, being all book-knowing and what, will know that Denethor has a lot to do with Faramir's change anyway. So were you all just hung up about the fact that Faramir was changed full stop?<BR>Perhaps most of you would still be mad then, but know that this scene gives good reasoning in the film.
