Yeah, that part was more than a bit irritating. It did an excellent job of showing how much the Ring was taking hold of Frodo, that he would turn on Sam, but firstly, it was somewhat unnecessary, and secondly, Sam never would have turned back. I don't know why finding the lembas on the cliff below would suddenly make him turn around, but oh well. PJ did an amazing job with the movies and I guess a couple of major departures from canon can be excused. A slightly imperfect movie is better than no movie at all, right?
