If You're Like This In The First Film How Are You Going To Handle The Third - Tumblr Posts

And another thing. My poor heart, I'd forgotten that Boromir dies in the first film. I was sitting there silently, unable to look away from the screen, throat locked up, tears streaming down my face, realizing that his last interaction with Frodo would be his temptation for the ring overtaking him, that he fought to save Merry and Pippin and had to watch as the orcs took them away...

If you were wondering, no I'm not okay. ;_;

I just had a lovely impromptu movie night with a friend, and we watched Fellowship of the Ring. I have not watched that movie all the way through in probably ten to fifteen years. Let me tell y'all.

It was an experience. Hearing the gorgeous music in its original context, seeing the beautiful landscapes laid out in so many shots and being brought along this roller coaster of the beginning of their adventure, watching the fellowship come together and take care of one another and fight for each other and keep each other going.

Just... so much. I have so much love for this film, and it's a tragedy it took me this long to rewatch it.
