I just read the scene last night where Gollum returns quietly from getting the coneys while Sam is looking at Frodo. He peers over Sam to look at the sleeping Frodo, closes his eyes and turns away. That scene says so much about the creature Gollum. I hope they do it in the movie! I hope it's close to how I see it in my head. Just tears me up.

It is a tragic scene. Boromir, Denethor, Gollum: all major tragic figures Tolkien paints most evocatively. I suppose you could throw Saruman in there as well.

Bumping for stumbling across the new hole. Family evening reading now has Gollum leading Frodo and Sam away from the Morannon and in to Ithilien. Gollum's voice has proved to be a challenge. More than anything, the voice that's coming out of me in reading it reminds me of a demented Yoda. See you all later!
