Any fans of the Smeagol opening? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

As I said on an earlier post, this scene was 'inspired'. On watching it again, I've noticed that smeagol is not really putting a lot of force into strangling deagol (ie the pressure on his throat). I was surprised at seeing this, because of Jackson's eye to detail. I would have imagined Peter shouting to Andy, "Go on, actually STRANGLE him properly for a few seconds. He'll be alright... I'll cut away quickly!!!!"
