Who is your favorite Lord of The Rings character? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

My favorite character in both books and movies is Boromir. I love the way Sean Bean played him. It's strange, I just re-read the book, and in the FotR he seems to be portrayed slightly harshly. What I mean is, he disagrees with people a lot, argues, things like that. But when he's dead he still features in the story a lot, and people speak very highly of him. Faramir, for instance. I'm not sure why that was relevant, but I progress. I like the way his character's flawed, I always seem to have a weakness for people like that. And he's very brave. But Sean Bean portrayed him so well, I can't quite put my finger on it but he made me like the character more. <BR>I also like Pippin, because he's fun, curious and amusing, but can be brave and loyal also. I think the way he grows up througout the books is brilliant.
