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 agree. His face, even for film Frodo, is notably child-like in the extreme closeness. The proportion accentuates the look of a child's face: a small lower part of the face and huge eyes and brow (under the mop of hair), not to mention the extremely tender cheeks.
And the eyelashes! I just said to Mariole, one of the thrills of this series is the number of frames with his eyes closed. Oh, moan for such loveliness!
