Theoden's Exorcism - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I enjoyed the movie version of Théoden and Gandalf. I know that it was different, but it helped the people understand that Saurman was in control of the Kingdom without having to go into a lot of the backstory. My parents (who have never read the books) understood what happened, and when I explained the story, they saw that Saurman controled his mind.<P>As for the Who am I, Gamling? I thought that was well done. I mean, major battle coming up, few men against Saurman's army, just coming into his own mind again - who wouldn't be questioning. Then I loved the "Where is the Horse and the Rider, Where is the Horn that was Blowing" speach.
