Boromir was the most human character
i was just watching the fellowship which i havent seen for a few months and what go tme thinking was that Boromir was so human so normall he had a weakness what all humans have.
It was just amazing watching it again it made me sad again when he died he died better then Theoden.
'I would have followed you my brother, my capatain, my king' 🙁
sorry i just actually felt for Boromir then i have with any other character
LOL...yes!! yes!! 😄 Another Boromir appreciator!! 😄 I believe I've also posted something in this forum supporting this idea...here I've found it, (sauron have already read this..LOL) 😛
Boromir isn't perfect! He's a brilliantly complicated fellow. Brilliant because his complexity is so natural-seeming. He's only a human and it's so beautiful!
He's proud yet modest.
Bold yet cautious.
He's slightly bossy, but honest and fair.
He's mighty but caring of those weaker than himself ("He was always kind to me," Frodo says, "We cannot stay here! This will be the death of the Hobbits!"😉. You will also notice that Boromir actually cares about the overlooked characters in the Fellowship. He's closer to Merry and Pip, and it seems like he's always carrying the responsibility for the safety of those two. He's teaching them how to swordfight. He's supporting them in Caradhras, he was the one who carried them when they jumped across the bridge in Moria, etc.
He's compassionate and sympathetic. Calming and supporting Gimli outside Moria when Gandalf fell. Then saying ("Give them a moment, for pity's sake!"😉. He was also the only character to approach Frodo and talk to him about Gandalf's "death" in Lorien when all else ignores him and look at him like everything's his fault.
He is unswervingly loyal to his country, his ruler, and his family. Boromir is accepting of praise, but lavishes it also upon his brother. He shows devotion to his lord and father, but defends his brother against Denethor's unjust scorn. He eagerly takes on the task of going to Elrond and bringing the Ring back to Denethor and Gondor, and shows not the slightest inclination to sieze the Ring for himself.
Boromir had a rare thing that most flawed characters don't have: He knew he was flawed. As a great leader of men, he knew his weaknesses.
Boromir actually have his reasons why he did the awful thing that he did to Frodo and you can actually sympathize with him.
I am so touched by Boromir's character. I can't tell you how much I cried when he died in the movie though I already knew it was coming. One of his touching quotes for me was "I would have followed you my brother, my Captain, my King."
There...I love Boromir!! 😍 😄
