<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>The whole sequence where the moth goes to Gandalf on the top of Orthanc is spectacular. I love the way the camera slowly follows the flight of the moth and then plunges down the side of the tower into the forges below.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>This was good, but I also liked the shot where Saruman and Gandalf were atop the Orthanc and the camera is on Saruman with a clear view of the sky behind him. The moth flutters by and then comes Gwaihir swooping from the great beyond seemingly out of nowhere. I didn't notice it in the theaters, but watching it at home, it made the hair on my neck stand on end.
