    trilogy’s core theme of power, makes an excellent point – and Peter Jackson agrees, for in his cinematic rendition of The Twin Towers, Jackson highlights the solidarity of men in their epic power struggle against themselves. In so doing, the film renders Faramir nearly unrecognizable: he clutches Gollum by the throat and lobs him against a wall, takes Frodo and Sam directly to Gondor, and yet elects to permit their escape at the end on pain of his own death.

    Pippin looked out from the shelter of Gandalf 's cloak. He wondered if he was awake or still sleeping, still in the swift-moving dream in which he had been wrapped so long since the great ride began. The dark world was rushing by and the wind sang loudly in his ears. He could see nothing but the wheeling stars, and away to his right vast shadows against the sky where the mountains of the South marched past. Sleepily he tried to reckon the times and stages of their journey, but his memory was drowsy
