Maybe the whole rope jerking thing was done to engender sympathy for "poor Sméagol". Works for me.

The eyes of Gollum had to have some 'humanity' for the plot to work - how else are we to feel for the creature, and so get set up for the betrayal? And Gollum's beating at the hands of Faramir, to me, also garnered a lot of sympathy for the wretch.
