Well, I don't know how Gandalf knew Gollum was captured in the films, but maybe it's hard to make sure everything makes sense to a non-book person when you know the books already...<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> how did gandalf know what gollum told his torturers? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> He didn't actually say what Gollum said- the scene cut to Gollum being tortured and somehow Frodo could hear what was said.<P>And no, it's the Daily Shire Express. <P>But no, I didn't find that bit at all confusing, because any gaps were filled in subconciously by my knowledge of the story. Does that make any sense at all?
