I saw RoTK tonight for the second time and I was even more touched by Hugo Weaving's performance then I was the first time. I tell you when Elrond goes to see Aragorn to take him the sword, the look on his face when he says "I am here on behalf of one I love..." wow his expression spoke volumes of angst!Also at the end, at the coronation, I cried a little when I saw Elrond's face - give his daughter up was clearly one of the most soul-rendering yet bittersweet things he has clearly ever had to do!Yes, I was very touched by Hugo's performance!
