I liked the part where Aragorn talks to the hobbits at the Prancing Pony. He tries to convince them without mentioning Gandalf. This puzzled me at first, until a book explained it to me. Aragorn's travels had made him a lonely man, and to get his true love he needed to be King of two countries. Not excactly an easy task. He wanted friends, like any other, and not because he knew Gandalf, but because he was himself. And the story of Aragorn and Arwen is very moving. I felt so sorry for him, whenever he had to make a hard decision, like wether to follow Frodo and Sam to Mordor or to go rescue Merry and Pippin. And I felt happy, whenever something good happened to him, or just if someone thought or said something nice of him. Aragorn is misunderstood by the people in Bree, and I am happy that they in the end reckonized his effort to keep Bree safe from evil creatures.
