Well, Sean Bean is in TROY as Odysseus, isn't he? He clearly won't be getting killed in that (not the star, but presumably amajor character).:-)<P>Sorry,that was off-topic... David Wenham did well with the material he had. I'd have *liked* to have seen him a bit more as the cluey guy he was in the novel, but there's only so much you can put into a film, so they concentrated on the neglected second son who can't do right by his father. That's okay. I'd have liked it better, though, if, in the scene where Denethor runs out wailing to see Faramir on his stretcher he'd spoken the lines from the book where he regrets having sent him off with harsh words instead of just, "Damn! My line's ended!" It would have made Denethor a bit more sympathetic.
