Cont'd. from the previous entry....
Note: once again I brightened and sharpened these images.
Here is an unretouched frame from the sequence:

Frodo has begun to fiddle with the Ring, the camera watching his hands turn it about in close-up. The voice of the Ring begins to be heard, whispering, "Baggins, Baggins...."
At first Frodo relaxes at the sound of it, as if falling into a trance....




The camera moves closer. His face has begun to sweat:




Tension begins to show, as if Frodo is sensing and feeling something less than pleasant.
Suddenly, over the top of the chant-like whispering of his name, Pippin's voice is heard calling out, "Baggins" -- the name which was not to be uttered outside of the Shire.
In extreme close-up, Frodo winces. The sound seems to recall him, dragging him back to consciousness:

I might have known. You certainly were profuse! Are you sure that's spit?
Really, is there anything more astonishingly beautiful than Frodo in Bree?
No. At least, I'll agree until I get to some other scene and begin swooning over that one. But I think you are right: the sheer drama of the lighting in Bree brings out one of his best looks. Not to mention extended frames of him with his eyes closed. *sigh*

As a sometime Faculty member, I find attention to detail is important. *licks way around to that cute angle of his jawline*
