Now that I've seen all three films, and gotten used to the idea that movie-Frodo is not the same as book-Frodo, the lines that haunt me most are the lines in FotR that foreshadowed how difficult this would all be for movie-Frodo.
At Bag-End, fearful but resigned: "What must I do?"
At Rivendell: "I'm not like you, Bilbo."
In Lorien: "Then I know what I must do. It's just... I'm afraid to do it."
'********
In RotK, when Frodo finishes Sam's water, and Sam admits there'll be no journey home, and helps Frodo up, and the two march towards Mount Doom, resigned to a certain end.
