I'm glad to see I'm not the only one to recognize that Faramir's very different behavior in the movie is caused by the very, very different behavior of Frodo.<P> The difference in Frodo may be explainable if one assumes he's not as old in the movie as he is in the book and this younger, less experienced, Frodo simply doesn't have the mature judgement and insight of his literary counterpart.
