That first screencap at the top is simply one of the most beautiful shots of Film Frodo ever. He looks so noble and pure and other-worldly ... and also somehow in control, resolute and determined - you can see it in the set of his chin. There shines the spirit of book Frodo - his inner beauty incarnated in the shape of an extremely fetching 20something American actor from the 21st century. Here he looks like a Renaissance statue. The wonder of it is, his beauty is forever captured on film, frozen in time.
The screencaps below show the vulnerable young hobbit. OK, young in the film ... young-ish in the book (sort of).
I love this scene. It really pulls at the heartstrings. I love the music, I love everything about it. The line 'Mordor, Gandalf which way is it?' made me laugh with affecionate amusement (at PJ's choice of line) the first time I saw the EE. It's beautifully delivered.
And I love those lines under his eyes, for all the reasons people here have said.
