Yes, I do see how in some parts of the film how Frodo has been weakened. I remember one scene in particular that bothered me this way in FOTR where he was dragged by a water monster into the lake near the mines of Moria, only to be sent tumbling into the arms of Boromir. At that moment, he did indeed look like a damsel in distress!
*Sigh*... but I love him anyway! Pearlette, I think I've seen some of your Frodo-loving comments before. I remember being so relieved to discover that there were other people out there who were having the same reactions as I was!!
As I mentioned in my previous post, I am constantly trying to somehow empower Frodo via fan art and fan fiction as a result of working with Peter Jackson's portrayal, as if to try to bring Frodo's image back into equilibrium, my latest attempt to date being a crossover with Disney's Brave.
Perhaps it is simply the price to pay for falling with such a beautiful character. If that is it, I am more than happy to pay it. ;)
