Well, for FOTR the saddest part is when Boromir dies protecting Merry and Pippin. It is his redeeming moment... and then when Aragorn finds him. I especially liked the added line in the extended version... something like, "They will look for his coming in the white tower, but he will not come" (I know that's not exactly right, but).<BR>For TTT I really thought the flash forward was sad. But I also thought it was quite sad when the men and boys were leaving the women and children in the caves to go fight.<P>But I do agree that the whole movie (meaning both) is sad. I can cry in many places, though they are not always tears of sorrow. In ROTK many of them will be tears of sorrow
