Most moving for me was the meeting of Turin and Beleg, after Beleg had been tied to a tree and humiliated by the outlaws. Turin's cry, "Beleg!..." and the Elf's collapse sends a pang down my spine and into my heart. It's worse when Mim gives up the outlaws, and worse again when Turin slays Beleg. Talk about rough.
I also enjoy Beleg's bantering so smartly with Turin about the Lembas in HoME. I love the eloquence of an angry Elf! It is fitting.
Don't get me started on Felagund, that one was traditional and horrible. So was Beren's death, with Huan by his side. I cried like a baby after that one!
