Most of you seem to be missing the main point. The reason why Faramir was changed so much is that he simply could not be portrayed on the screen as he is in the books. Imagine this, his brother goes mad for the Ring attacking Frodo, Galadriel, one of the most wise beings, tells Frodo he has to go to Mordor alone as "one by one it will take them all". It just would be ridiculous to have Faramir, basically a prince, going "Oh so you have the Ring then, don't worry I don't want it." On text it is noble but on screen it is just plain daft.
