The Mouth of Sauron - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The Mouth gets a mention in the Weapons Guide, so he should be there in the extended version. I believe the role is being played by Bruce Spence, an Australian actor best known for his comedy (you may have seen him in Mad Max 2 - a very tall man).<P>It should be interesting to see how they manage it. As I recall, what the Mouth did was try to convince Our Heroes that Frodo was imprisoned by showing his mithril shirt, cloak, etc. which one of the orcs had run off with. I don't *think* that happened in the movie ... did it? They both got killed.<P>As for whether Sauron in the book has a body ... didn't someone say at one stage that the idea was to capture Frodo and torture him by making him see the Ring *on Sauron's hand*? If he hasn't a body, he can't have a hand, can he?
