Lyra Greenleaf has just left Hobbiton.
Silmaril

I've given up comparing the book and film, they're too different in the end. I mean, you can compare (say) the characterisations, but a <I>book</I> and a <I>film?</I> It's like comparing...a doughnut to a bag of chips!<BR>(I don't know where that analogy came from)<P>I have to say i love both to bits- but in different ways for different things. presumably it's gonna be people who like books who prefer the book and vice-versa. <P>there is just one thing i HATE in the film and thats Faramir. They ruined a brilliant character! And a whole flipping storyline! And what was Denethor doing in Osgilliath ("Take them to my father") anyway?<BR>(sorry, but i have to rant \bout this ocassionally)
