Daegwenn has just left Hobbiton.
Silmaril

I thought that Arwen in the movie was great...although I have to agree that she shouldn't have replaced Glorfindel, I understand the reason why it was done. <P>Liv Tyler played Arwen exactly how I would have expected. She had to have known of Aragorn's history because, as Tigerlily Gamgee said, she, her brothers and father had practically raised Aragorn.<P>As for her crying when Frodo dies...that just goes back to how elves act. Elves are sorrowful. They cry as much as they laugh from what I can gather--and she wasn't ignorant to the fact that Frodo was the ringbearer and everything rested on his shoulders.<P>~~Daegwenn

"And still of a winter’s night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
When the road is a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,
A highwayman comes riding—
Riding—Riding—
A highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.

Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard.
And he taps with his whip on the shutters, but all is locked and barred.
He whistles a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord’s black-eyed daughter,
Bess, the landlord’s daughter,
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair"
Highwayman
