I'm with lindil and Bee. The Denethor character was really more of a parody than a real person. ("Look! Even the way he EATS is EVIL!") His only purpose was to be wretched and despised. Of the house of the Stewards, Faramir is no longer the one with the most twisted adaptation.<P>I hope the EE gives Denethor more depth and dignity than he was accorded in the theatrical version. <P>It really did seem like Gandalf was trying to off Denethor. That was twisted.<P>-Lily
