Faramir's Hair Color Change

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

I noticed the changing of Faramir's hair colour the very first time I saw a picture of him on the internet, and to this day I think it is Peter Jackson's most sickening change in the entire trilogy, possibly even the entire history of film adaptations.<P>The first time I saw The Two Towers I had to close my eyes whenever David Wenham was on screen.<P>Speaking of Boromir, didn't he have darker hair in the books as well? Though I feel <B>Finwe</B>, is correct in thinking that the change was made to avoid confusion with Aragorn. Those casual fans eh?! <p>[ 11:49 AM December 16, 2003: Message edited by: Eomer of the Rohirrim ]
