Beverly -- yes! That's it -- except I think that Sam Shepard is actually rangier than Viggo.
'Unleashed'
LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".
Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".
A discussion of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. If you're a pervy hobbit fancier, this is the place for you.
TORN has pictures.
A decent (if too short) interview with Fran and Phillippa on LotR being a "boys' movie."
So what's with two girls writing a boys' film?
You could almost hear them scream.
Kathy -- thanks for that link.
Also, apparently, Sean Astin is supposed to be a presenter on the Grammys tonight.
(That was from TORN -- they also say that Ian Holm remarried recently.)
I must admit, I am a complete sap.
Annie Lennox makes me cry when she sings, "why do the white gulls call?"
::sniffle::
Is Annie Lennox singing that tonight?
I have no idea, it's just on the soundtrack I'm listening to.
I got halfway through the song on my soundtrack, and then couldn't listen to it again. I'm hoping, now that I've heard it over the credits that it won't bum me out as much.
"...turns to silver glass..." gets me. It brings back the Pippin-Gandalf scene. And "here in my arms, just sleeping" breaks me. Still, every time.
