![The Lord of the Rings (2001) - The Fighting Uruk-Hai, Part 1 [4K - Upscaled + slightly edited]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LPBnefRM24g/mqdefault.jpg)
The "Frodo, Im sorry!" Breaks my heart, poor Boromir didn't want to do any of that.
I love Boromir and Frodo’s relationship. There is an obvious break in trust between them because of Boromir’s actions, and they essentially part ways as enemies. But they do care for each other and think of each other fondly. Boromir sheds actual tears when he realizes what he’s done, and feels guilt to the point of willingly laying down his life as repentance, while Frodo tells Faramir - before learning the news - that if Boromir were dead, hypothetically, he would grieve.
While they were traveling over the snowy mountain. "This will be the death of the little ones!"
When the giant squid let go of Frodo, Boromir was there to catch him and carry him into the mines.
As they were fleeing the Balrog, it was Boromir that grabbed a hold of Merry and Pippin and jumped with them over the collapsing bridge.
It was Boromir that asked Aragon to give them a moment for pity's sake when they mourned Gandalf's fall.
It was Boromir that talked to Frodo about not carrying the weight of the dead. Pushing his own despair to the side to try and help Frodo cheer up.
Frodo knew who Boromir was, and that the one that attacked him was just a other victim of the damned Ring.
And yes this is all from the movies, was just a kid when I read the books, don't remember the books very well.
That prolonged moment of realization and sobbing into such a desperate cry for forgiveness is bloody harrowing, especially concidering Boromir up to that point had done his utmost to protect the Halflings from whatever danger came their way.
It hammers home just how evil the Ring is, turning him-for a moment- against the "little ones" who he seemed to have a special bond with.
i absolutely love how frodo says. “you are not yourself” knowing boromirs true nature is good. the evil here is all the ring, i hate that thing. poor boromir…
Also when Faramir asks Frodo if he is a friend of Boromir and he says yes.
@@Zombie8597 true friendship. very subtle but powerful
@@Zombie8597 He said "Yes, for my part" But he left out that Boromir was not a friend back to him. Because of his wickedness.
His lousy father partly blame for Boromir's desperation. Both him and Faramir hated their father and we can all see why.
At that line you can hear the ring whispering also 1:41
Boromir's "transformation" in this scene is SO well done. He starts with genuine concern, moving to sympathy, moving to a desperate desire to protect his people, to a vicious desire to take the ring so quickly, but somehow so naturally. Talk about the road to hell paved in good intentions.
And he only joined the fellowship/headed to Rivendell as a result of his father's lust of the Ring. Denethor wanted to validate his stewardship and was insecure about the fact he wasn't Gondor's rightful king. He likely believed the ring would provide the strength to rule as king.
Regardless though, Boromir unfortunately paid the price.
*_«It could have been mine! It should be mine! Give it to me!»_*
The Ring partially embodies that: It *seeks* good intentions, it preys on and awaits for them, because the most obvious thing to do with a power such as the One Ring is to use it against the enemy. But if it was so simple, it would have been done a long time ago. It will bury your good intentions. It will turn you into the desired tool that will pave your road, but point you in the direction towards hell, knowing where to go where you don’t.
@@teleportedbreadfor3days Imagine all the good things you want, all the good in the world that could be, all the good that YOU could be....it's all yours, if you just reach out and take it. That 's the power of the ring.
You can also hear Saurons subtle voice, when he throws down the wood.
Love Sean Bean's acting here, he really sells the rage and desperation and then the agonizing guilt and shame.
Yes, he's clearly upset when he realises the ring made him completely lose his composure.
Thats a post nut clarity for you.
He is good, no doubt
In the books he was way more vicious though, with his threats to Frodo, they toned it down for the movie, I am glad.
But yeah, I agree, Sean Bean played the part flawlessly.
such a good actor, amazing
As a kid, I hated Boromir because I thought he was evil from the start. But when I got older, I realized how wrong I was. He was never evil, he was just taken advantage of by the Ring and it fueled his insecurities and he gave into temptation. He was desperate to save his country because they were literally on Mordor's doorstep and Denethor put all the responsibility on him and the pressure was too much for him. I kept forgetting that the Ring is an actual sentient being that easily tempts people in turmoil. The Ring knew how to exploit him and it almost won but thankfully Boromir's true will realized what he was doing. I only wish Frodo knew that he didn't mean to attack him.
I was the same way. I thought he was just evil, but now that I’m older and a bit wiser, I realize he’s just a great representation of human nature. His desire to do good almost corrupted him through the desire to use the ring
Same! I didn’t realize how strong the pull was on the heart of men. Same with Iisildor.
Exactly what i felt when i first saw the movie. We see Boromir so differently today.
I never understood how the ring influenced him since he only interacted with the chain ⛓️ link that held the ring and not the ring itself.
Yeah the ring casts a spell on people's minds that amplifies and makes them a slave to all their fears and inner conflict. And they end up viewing having possession the ring as the only possible source of re-empowerment and liberation from those fears. To put it simply, it draws its power from the disempowerment of everyone in its vicinity.
The way he says Frodo when he realises what he's done is heartbreaking
2:56 "FRODO, I'M SORRY!" The realization all too late. His weaknesses are too great, Boromir is a good man but not for this task that would strain even the greatest to their breaking point.
The problem with having a big heart like Boromir's is that with all that love and desire to do good comes an unspeakable, crippling fear of failure and loss. The ring seized on that. It tore at his insecurities and anxieties until it was like a gaping, painful wound in his chest. The pain was so great that, like a wild animal, he lashed out to drive it away. Only when Boromir came back to his senses did he realize just what he had done, and that his fear had been made manifest by nothing else but his own actions.
*Chef's kiss* what a movie
I know this is a year old comment, but I couldn't have put it better myself - so, so sad and tragic. I already knew the story before seeing this for the first time in 2001, but they nailed it here in the movie, so sad. I love Boromir.
I can't possibly think of anyone who could have played that role other than Sean Bean. Sounds a bit silly I know, but, he's just built for Boromir - amazing casting.
I love the scene where Aragorn doesn't allow Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippen to grieve for Gandalf, while Borimir wants to allow them to.
Shows you Boromir has genuinely empathy. If anything too much.
@@luckyspurs Mhm, it's not that Aragorn didn't have empathy, after all, Gandalf was his oldest friend. Yet Aragorn was also a practical man that could set his grief aside until it was the time for it. In the movie it is described as just " by nightfall these hills will be crawing with orcs" but in the books it's written that orcs would often chase a foe for miles into the open plains to avenge the death of a chieftain, which Aragorn had killed in the Chamber of Secrets in Moria. So they had to get out of there and reach Lothlorien. And in the book, a horde of orcs -did- end up chasing them all the way there, until the elves killed them.
Still, that does not take away from Boromir's empathy in the slightest.
What a great comment!
Poor Boromir, to him, he wanted the ring for good, but in reality was being corrupted by it. Then redeems himself defending the Hobbits, and killing a fuck ton of Uruk-Hai while riddled with arrows. Sean Bean is a boss
Expertly played human. In a story of high fantasy where creatures of great power bends the will of many. He shows both our reach and our grasp.
@@murdermatics yes hes the most human and to us real character in the whole story i would say
Sean Bean the forever dying actor 😂
The Ring is altogether evil!! Just like Gandalf said!!
Don't forget Denethor aswell. His father really pushed/forced him mentally to get the ring. And thrn ofcourse the Ring got to him.
Really like the touch of the ruined statue in this scene. I think it parallels Boromir's breakdown and the decayed state of Gondor. And if nothing else it makes the scene look even better.
Great work on that scene!
I wonder who represents that statue
Visual reinforcements like this IMO separate the good from the great directors
@@RockSmithStudio Perhaps Valandil?
Boromir is hands down my favourite character. Hes just a man who wants what's best for his people. A character with such a big heart. When Gandalf fell in Moria, it was him who was comforting the hobbits.
He was always dangerous to be around because of moments like this. His mind was weak, even if he was a good person, he had no mental strength whatsoever.
Well actually he had to help calm and comfort Gimli who was in a fit of anger and sadness. It was him however who wanted to give the hobbits a moment to grieve in peace. It was also him who taught Merry and Pippin how to wield their weapons and it was him who grabbed them and kept across the gap in the stairs… and above all that he did follow Frodo here with the intention of providing some sort of protection to him and in the end when he was dying it was his first thought to ask where was Frodo and to inform Aragorn about Merry and Pippin getting abducted. His heart was always there for the lil folk of the shire. I think Boromir admired them in a way. He is a war hero who’s people unfortunately face a great threat imminently and when he sees the hobbits I truly believe he sees them as a representation of what he wants for his people. At least that’s how I see it. He sees them as jolly, comfortable, and hardy. All great qualities to have.
You see what the ring can do when a man like him can be brough to bear.
How much does a car wash?
Probably not much?
Mine too. He always felt so real to me and he was so noble, even in his weakest state he gave his life for others. Always selfless. I wished he could have seen Aragon's coronation
"I ask only for the strength TO DEFEND MY PEOPLE!" I absolutely LOVE how Sean Bean delivers this line, even when he is being corrupted by the Ring he is STILL thinking of others, and upon realizing what he had done, Boromir is genuinely distressed and ashamed of his own actions, and him shouting "FRODO! I'M SORRY!" is genuinely heartbreaking, but before he even has a chance to reconcile with Frodo, he's already in another perilous situation protecting 'the little ones', even as he is shot by three arrows, he continues to fight, protecting Mary & Pippin knowing fully well that this would be his last stand.
While Boromir may have faltered, temporarily corrupted by the Ring's temptation, he dies a hero, protecting his Hobbit friends, and finally accepting Aragorn as "My brother... my captain... my king".
He kept his honor
He was a great man.
The reason he is my favorite, flaws and all. He's a good man.
Isildur died with 3 arrows in the back because he thought he was the ring's master, and got betrayed by it.
Boromir died with 3 arrows in the front, because he stayed true to his ideals and friends, to care and protect the weaker than him.
Fan fact, for those who never read the books, originally Faramir was supposed to go to Rivendell since there never was an invitation, only Faramir had vivid dreams in two different occasions, showing him Rivendell, but didn't say anything, only after Boromir had the dream once, he went there, meaning that the Valar wanted Faramir in the fellowship and not Boromir.
And still didn't betray the mission!
That's the point of the Ring as presented in the films as a key threat. Gandalf stated earlier that he fears turning into something he hated out of the desire for good by receiving the Ring. This scene is its payoff and it's wonderfully done.
And this is the last time Frodo and Boromir met..
But he doesnt hold hatred towards him cause his actions we're not of his own and The Ring was taken hold of him
In the book Faramir asks if Frodo would be upset at the hypothetical news of Boromir’s death (before actually breaking the news). Frodo says “I would indeed.” Goes to show that he never resented Boromir for this, and was likely as fond of him as he was fond of the rest of the Fellowship.
Boromir to me is the best written and most interesting character of the movies. A figure of the tragic hero. A troubled mind. Not to mention brilliantly portrayed by Sean Bean
*I only ask for the strength to defend my people!*
Such an agonising line. Gondor bordering Mordor with constant battles with orcs and other forces of Sauron would mentally be tough to deal with.
@@mikespearwood3914 I can imagine how truly insulting and frustrating it is to see the heir to Gonder, the King himself trusting Elves over his people. Regardless of whether or not Aragorn was right, Boromir could not see it.
That is his father talking
*If you would but lend me the ring*
Why do you recoil??I am no thieff
The way he delivers "and you will beg for death before the end" is awesome. Sean Bean is a great actor
When I was very young, this scene made no sense to me, and Boromier’s mental breakdown left me shook. Even without fully understanding the dialogue, you still feel Frodo’s anxiety through the screen.
"Do you know what makes a good Uruk?"
"The ability to fire three arrows in under a minute!"
Sharpe ! Nice !
Deserve more likes!
Now that's soldiering
"curse you and all the halfings!"
And in the end he died trying to protect two of them.
He's the non-hobbit member of the fellowship who most closely bonds with Merry and Pippen before this too.
Which ultimately saves all four of the halflings in the group. His sacrifice for Merry & Pippin made them seem pragmatically important to the Orcs; it’s precisely what made them assume Merry & Pippin were the ones with the Ring. Why else would this great warrior of Gondor lay down his life to defend these two little creatures? The Orcs cannot comprehend love and affection. Thus they took Merry & Pippin alive and then went in the opposite direction of Frodo & Sam. Without Boromir’s grand gesture, the Orcs would’ve just killed Merry & Pippin and kept searching the forest until they inevitably found Frodo & Sam.
@@12classics39 Yup, every character of the fellowship played their part in its success, even Boromir when it looks like he failed them, but he ddidn't.
It gives me goosebumps when he says ' I see your mind'
Sean Bean played this scene as Boromir right as in the books. Emotions, expressions, intent everything. He will always be a great actor .
He's a great guy in real life too.
I disagree. He portrayed Boromir in a much - MUCH - more likeable way than Tolkien wrote him. It's clear to me that Tolkien thought very little of Boromir as a person. Sure, he's a gallant fighter, but he's also the first one to complain when something's going wrong on the quest. He's the one who doubts Gandalf and Aragorn, he's pompous about his heritage and his people. The film version keeps those things, but also gives him moments where he genuinely bonds with the others. He comforts Gimli after Gandalf's death, he saves Frodo from the Watcher, he looks after Merry and Pippin several times as a foreshadow to his sacrifice for them. It's a much more rounded portrayal.
@@JimmySteller Agreed. Book Boromir is a little underwhelming.
I'll never stop loving this trilogy
How do you feel about Rings of Power?
@@kohtalainenalias Not a fan
Maybe Disney will have a remake of this with their more....
diverse quota on identity politics?
@@kohtalainenaliasMaybe one day people will stop constantly complaining about it an we can al move on with life
@@kohtalainenalias Maybe, but if you can't stand seeing non-white faces on TV then there's always this original trilogy for you
Boromir screaming for Frodo while hes in the wraith world is such a badass soundscape
Yeah, the series is filled with awesome sound design.
If you listen carefully when boromir is saying give it to me you can hear Sauron’s voice in the background music, also after he falls you can hear a “gollum”
Yes indeed
And at 1:41 you can hear ring start whispering
wow nice catch
How have I never noticed the "Gollum" after he fell
It sounds like a growl 😢
Seeing a grown man devolve to that kind of cry, that inner child, overwhelmed, desperate hiccupping cry. That is agony.
I don't think Amazon can make a masterpiece like these movies
The amazon tv series is going to be woke garbage that will forever leave a stain on the lotr trilogy and book series. It will never be half as good as the books or movies.
They just want a Tolkien Game of Thrones they are going to screw big
@@JJTN2K exactly, they will ruin it
@@JJTN2K fuck Game of thrones. LOTR is LOTR, and it needs to be done the way Jackson did it, not like that overrated piece of shit TV show
@@martinlopez2816 You are goddam rigth
him whispering What have I done made me fall in love with Boromir and realize the rings influence dropping off as Frodo left his vicinity. epic
This actor sounds so much like Jim. The guy that played Mell Gibson's version of Jesus. I when I first listened to the Passion of the Christ thought hay it's the dude from LOTR.
The color grading in the first movie was so good, just look at the color in this scene
Yes!!
Shows the power of the ring quite well in this scene. Boromir does want strength and power but with the intention of protecting his people. His actual ambition is good. So the ring uses that to call to Boromir, not unlike a demon presenting itself as an angel, promising what you most desire to hook you, then taken control of you. The cruelty of this ring is chilling. It uses you against you, then corrupts you to its own end.
It costs Boromir his life, but he dies with honor. He was never the bad guy. He was just a man.
Quite sure even Sauron's ambition was good. They are always good at the beginning.
@@M0butu Sauron, at first, sought order and efficiency because he thought that was the best for Middle Earth, but he could only achieve this if he became its ruler. Good intentions, but then it lead to 5000 years of war and horrible crimes. He became corrupted by his own good intentions. I think, it all goes back to Melkor/Morgoth. And even Melkor didn't start out evil. Melkor wanted to create life, according to his own vision. But when he finds out he can't it all goes bad, and he starts destroying what others have made.
You know, as a kid I never really liked Boromir? I was sad when he died and I understood that he had "redeemed" himself somehow with his protection of the hobbits, but he was still the "bad guy" of the heroes, right? It's only when I grew up that I understood and realized that Boromir is one of the best characters. We all like to think we'd be like Aragorn and Gandalf, wise and humble, rejecting the ring because we know better. But I think we're most like Boromir. We'd think we could handle the ring and destroy ourselves. He's such a sad and well-written character with a noble heart.
Aragon is sort of set as the "best example" of a human. Someone we should all strive to be like, someone to look up to and be inspired by.
Even if we can never become as great as Aragon because we are, just humans. Just trying to be like him will make us better.
Boromir is more of a realistic target. We can all become great men like Boromir, it won't be easy, and it will take a long time. But we will still have weaknesses, things that can be exploited by others.
Boromir is a great example of a great human.
Aragon, is more like, a elevated human. A transcended human perhaps?
His greatest fear was realized: that he wasn't as strong as his father said he was
Starting at 0:46 you can hear soft bass thrumming in the background. The same kind of thrumming whenever the ring is shown. It becomes louder the more aggressive Boromir becomes. Genius sound design to signal the keen eared viewer that the ring is corrupting Boromir.
The sound design throughout the whole series is just awesome!
Wow Sean Bean nailed this performance I was impressed.
Very sad Boromir was wasted so early and his brother was introduced so late. They both have good qualities and a very sad father.
I agree. Still makes me wonder what would've happened if Faramir and Boromir switched places.
@@MarshWaha Tolkien actually did go on record and said that if Faramir had been sent to Rivendell instead, he would’ve lived.
@@JohnLuckPickard141that’s true.

Sean Bean was robbed. He deserved an Oscar nomination just as much as Ian McKellen did.
Boromir is such an amazing character and Sean Bean such an amazing actor.
Poor Boromir.🥺
Yes, the stress of constant warfare with a hostile neighbour must take a mental toll after a while.
Can we take a minute to appreciate the set designers and carpenters who made all the backdrops and props? I know intellectually that "stone" head is probably plaster or styrofoam faux-finished to look the way it did but it really looks like weathered stone that's been there for hundreds of years. All for something with maybe five seconds of screen time.
Too bad that won't happen anymore. Studios would rather pay some sweatshop code farm in India 5 rupees to haphazardly place an old PS3 asset in the background.
I now realize, so amazingly, WHY I loved LOTR/It’s the Word brought to life!! WOW!!!💙🕊️💙✝️💙✡️💙
What a performance by Sean Bean
Some of the best acting in the whole trilogy here. Sean Bean was perfect for Boromir.
"It should be mine, give it to me." Boromir said calmly.
Notice he makes a "gollum" noise just before realizing that he has been defeated by the ring.
I sort of noticed that!! Good catch!!
Probably coincidence??
Maybe its only me as a Tolkien fan but I think that even if I watched this movie 25 times (I watched it maybe 13 times over the years) it will never get boring just becouse I know the story, it will always make me think and feel a better way. And everytime I saw Sam closing the yellow door at the end I felt that I just saw a masterpiece one of the greatest the cinematography ever done - thats always my general feeling at the end of this film. :)
Middle earth always makes me feel better
Something I greatly appreciate about Jackson's film is how he shows the development of Boromir's fear and desperation throughout the journey. I know it wasn't Tolkein's intention, but I feel like the books they cast Boromir in a bright light of pig-headed arrogance, and we didn't see a lot of his more noble virtues until the end.
I've always loved Frodo's facial expressions in this scene. I'm fascinated by it.
The facial expressions of Elijah wood are so great throughout the series. They’re almost funny at times because he gets stabbed so much and he looks like he’s about to shit each time.
@@MegaSteven011 Well, I like his facial expressions. :)
Elijah Wood has a face that the camera just adores. It’s so incredibly photogenic and he doesn’t need to speak a word for you to know exactly what Frodo is thinking and feeling, just by looking into his eyes.
20yrs on and the Fellowship is still my fav out of the three.
Same
Never wanted anything for himself. He just wanted means to end what Gondor was facing.
But, being too sure of his cause, was his ruin. He just thought keeping Gondor gave him justification and the Ring used that notion against him, driving him mad
One cool thing I noticed in this scene that people don’t talk about enough is the fact that as soon as Frodo leaves and the ring is no longer near Boromir, that’s when he starts to see what happened and starts to regret what he said to Frodo, which helps show that Boromir was being corrupted by the ring.
Let's be honest, all people on Earth would act like Boromir in this situation
@@professorx3060 Which is also why we shouldn't judge Aragorn and Frodo so harshly because the way Boromir did because they're clearly better than not just Boromir but all of us!
Seriously, all you Boromir defenders do is hypocritically throw Aragorn and Frodo under the bus whenever someone criticizes Boromir. Like you do realise you're not making him look better, if anything you're just worsening his reputation.
@@shawnwarrynn8609 Nobody here is doing that though...
I haven't rewatched this scene for a long time and damn-
I forgot how full of emotions it is, LOTR was truly a masterpiece
Notice when the ring is out of his sight and he falls to the ground, his true self suddenly reveals itself
He actually wasn’t wrong…. Frodo indeed brought the ring to Sauron’s doorstep and eventually betrayed the mission of the Fellowship when he finally succumbed to the ring…..
He might not have been himself, but he was right.
@@calowenby1654 The evil one always mixes lies with the truth
It’s not at all fair to call it a betrayal. Frodo at that point was completely brainwashed by the Ring and had no will of his own left to destroy it. As anyone in that position would be. It’s not Frodo’s fault. If Boromir had survived, he would’ve completely understood that, having felt the Ring’s power here. Leave Frodo alone.
@@calowenby1654 Are you people serious! Boromir was barely exposed that long to The One Ring and is already clearly corrupted! Frodo may have eventually become corrupted but it took way longer!
Look, we get it is Boromir is a well written redemption character! And we are all indeed like Boromir! But it is hypocritically to throw characters like Aragorn and Frodo under the bus whenever someone criticizes Boromir. Like you do realise you're not making him look better, if anything you're just worsening his reputation, by slandering Aragorn and Frodo!
@@shawnwarrynn8609...and in addition to all this, the Ring becomes stronger the closer its bearer is to Mount Doom. Right inside the mountain, not even Sauron himself would've had a courage to cast the Ring into the Doom's fire, doing so willingly is stated to be literally impossible for any living being
Boromir is possessed by the ring in this scene with those sound effects like its whispers to him. 1:33 1:47 1:52
no way amazon can make such a good heartfelt scene like this
They will have... politically correct version of it. With female lead of course.
I just want to say; Boromir had more pure intentions than Galadriel. He desired the ring to help his people. Galadriel desired to be a dark queen that people loved. Boromir was more noble in his heart than the oldest and wisest elf.
I think galadriel was just so clairvoyant that she understood what she would become regardless of her intentions being good.
@@jesselaine6003the books mention she had long desired the ring, especially in her youth (even in her youth she would have been older and wiser than Boromir) She even contemplated the idea of taking it herself. Frodo offering it to her freely threw her completely off guard. She couldn't comprehend someone being willing to give it away. I believe that was what helped her resist accepting it.
@@theodenhorselord9766 perhaps. Its too long since i read the books!
Nah that's how Boromir rationalised it: but his motivation was the power itself. This isn't a mark against Boromir though: I would be corrupted by the ring more easily than Boromir was.
2:35 Boromir says, "Gollum." After he falls.
"What chance do you think you have?"
Love that line. Genuine concern, also an barely veiled threat.
2:45 best part of the whole scene
Then he redeems himself by defending his companions with all his might and strenght. He gave a middle-finger to Sauron. Humans are beautiful creatures.
Still till now the best movie ever 😍😍
Give me the ring, Boromir asked calmly.
Ngl, boromirs death was an iconic scene, but imagine boromir in the next two movies. Imagine boromir fighting alongside Aragorn at the black gate, at helms deep, of course it had to happen so that faramir could be introduced in the way he was, and to continue the fall of denethor but man
Sean Bean would have made such an amazing Arthas in these years.... Also the "FRODO I'M SORRY!" at 2:57 cracks me up every time ;D
I consider this the third and final motivation for Frodo to complete his quest throughout the next two films.
1. Seeing what it did to Bilbo in Rivendell.
2. Seeing the Scouring of The Shire in Galadriel’s mirror.
3. This scene, showing Frodo that even the strongest man of honour can be twisted by the rings corruption.
Damn I feel bad for Boromir here, and the whole fellowship actually.
2:21
You know, if Gollum hadn't intervened Boromir really isn't wrong here...
gollum's intervention could've been "fate" or "destiny" i guess
Are you kidding me? Frodo’s will was completely broken in Mt. Doom, as anyone’s would be. No mortal could overpower the will of the Ring; that’s the whole point, and it’s why the Ring’s destruction could only have indirect causes, not the least of which was Frodo choosing to spare Gollum and later curse him. If it weren’t for Frodo, Gollum wouldn’t have been there at Mt. Doom to accidentally finish the job. That sure as heck isn’t a betrayal.
If you listen closely you can hear the rings voice tempting him
Can anyone else hear Saurons voice when he says “give me the ring” at 2:10?
Everyone, it seems to the possessor, must have a burden they carry, sometimes all the way thru life. It is unbearable at times and we must cast it off, only to have to pick it up again. Then there are those who try to convince us we don't need to torture ourselves with it. But it isn't our choice, really.

May it be an evening star

You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home
Mornië utúlië (Darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
When he realized he was influenced by the ring, and the shame of what he said and did.
Sean Bean is such a great actor.
Sean Bean was superb in this scene.
Boromir deserved better.
"Jon, give me the Ring!"
"Who's Jo..."
"WINTER IS COMING, GODDAMMIT!"
When I was I kid, I HATED Boramir. Now, I understood him
2:23 ironically Frodo almost did that if it weren't for Gollum
Well Gollum was only there because Frodo spared his life. The Ring’s will was always going to overpower the will of someone who tried to destroy it directly. This is why its destruction could only happen indirectly, via Gollum’s insatiable greed for it. But only Frodo could’ve gone as far as he did and managed to fight back against the Ring until the very last possible moment. It was Frodo’s actions and choices that ensured the Ring’s destruction. Hard to believe some people still can’t see this and hate on Frodo. The Ring’s breaking of Frodo’s will was inspired to the brutal torture that broke many of Tolkien’s captured colleagues during the war. Tolkien himself said in a letter that he didn’t see how anyone could be blamed or declared morally responsible for breaking under unbearable torture.
@@12classics39 i didn't say that he was right.
How am I JUST now hearing that deep growl as he commands "Give me the ring" at 0:52 . Wow.
The anguish in Boromir's voice when he yells that he's sorry. Poor guy.
1:57 When another customer takes the last packet of toilet paper for themselves and they don't understand you've been wiping your ass with 600 grit sandpaper for weeks.
Boromir wasn’t wrong when he said he said Frodo would betray them in the end. It’s only because of Frodo sparing and cursing Gollum that the ring was ultimately destroyed.
To call it a betrayal is to imply Frodo’s refusal to destroy the Ring was intentional on his part. It was not. He was completely broken by the Ring and had no will of his own left. As would be the case for anyone in his position. Y’all keep making these unwarranted personal attacks on Frodo just because of something he simply no longer had the strength to control. It was *not* a betrayal. The Ring possessed him and made him believe he wanted to keep it in order to ensure its own survival. He was not himself at all in that moment.
Love music in this scene“One Ring „ theme !
I love reading the books and I noticed reading recently in the book, in the council of Elrond when Frodo brought forth the ring, I believe the ring immediately began to effect Boromir because like in the films he's the first person to speak during it's reveal and then in the book he goes on to deliver a brilliant speech, standing tall and proud about his people but wants Gondor to take possession of it for protection or use it as a weapon. Sean Bean did a excellent job as Boromir.
Damn that's cool.
What kills me is that Boromir never truly got the moment to tell Frodo that he was sorry.
I think Frodo knew. Once he felt the magnitude of the Ring’s power, he understood Boromir.
0:16 After all fights, Boromir's shield looks like brand new
Everybody here offers Boromir the forgiveness he deserved for falling to the Ring, and yet still so many do not offer Frodo the same forgiveness, and he’s the one who carried it for 6 straight months around his neck all the way into Mordor itself BEFORE he fell to its power … whereas Boromir fell after only being around it on the road for 1 month, and in the book he never even touched it.
I've rewatched the entire series 10 times through and that's only since the end of February and march isn't even half over.
Sean Bean really showed his range as an actor, going through so many different emotions all at once as desperation overtook Boromir and shame overtook him as he realized he was wrong to try to take the ring from Frodo.
The physical sets and props--incluing the "bigatures" that were actually built and filmed--are a huge part of the reason this trilogy holds up as well as it does. There's not as much CGI use as you might think in this trilogy, which is why it still looks good.
Boromir is like the honest hero who falls to temptation but in the end redeems himself, whereas Aragorn is the perfect hero born into noble blood. I think Sean Bean is the perfect actor for Boromir.
This scene is like Shakespeare.
Sean Bean, attore superlativo, eccezionale !!!!!!
Yes but it shows how strong aragorn is that he resisted the influence of the one ring despite being offered it.
And that's why he forgives Boromir in the end.
I don't like how they added to the movie, the Ring is supposed to represent something you can't resist. Even Frodo failed, makes it seem like agrogon is not human.
@@anarchonazbol6768 Aragorn did not get hold the ring directly, and being one of the best examples of Men, (He's the future king of Gondor ffs) in his era he had a greater willpower to resist the ring compared to other men. Frodo did well considering he had to bear the ring all the way to Mt. Doom, and only failed at the end because the ring was actively influencing Frodo to prevent its own demise.
It was also theorised that the ring chose to focus on Boromir, who was the weakest spiritually out of those in the Fellowship of the Ring. The ring corrupted him and made him do things he normally would not.
the ring would of destroyed the entire fellowship one by one. only Frodo could carry it into Mordor.
@@Xanitrit_Zeo Boromir was to show even the greatest man can be corrupted. I just don't like the way they show the human race compared to the books, they make them seem so weak. It even says "men are weak". Isisdar was a great man as well, and he was corrupted.
In the book, this scene is quite a bit longer with more dialogue. You can see Boromir slowly transform from a well-meaning warrior who just wants to protect his people into something almost like the Serpent in the Garden of Eden. He continues trying to reason with Frodo and answers every objection Frodo gives, but Frodo still won't go with him or give him the Ring. Then Boromir changes completely and goes into the classic, "It really should be mine anyway, you just got lucky to have it, it really belongs to me" sort of thing. This is when Frodo finally puts it on and disappears, then Boromir falls down and finally comes back to his senses.
What's even more tragic though is that in the book, Boromir returns to the company and Aragorn immediately asks if he's seen Frodo. Boromir says, "Yes and no," and goes on to say that he and Frodo were talking and then he got angry with Frodo and he disappeared. Aragorn looks at him sternly and says, "Is that all you have to say?" And Boromir says, "Yes. I will say no more yet." And Boromir sits down and puts his head in his hands in grief.
Aragorn tries to get the Fellowship to organize a search, but everybody panics and starts running off. Legolas and Gimli run off together, Merry and Pippen run off together, Sam goes off alone, and finally Aragorn has to shake Boromir out of it and says, "Boromir! I do not know what part you have played in this mischief, but help now! Go after those two young hobbit, and guard them at the least, even if you cannot find Frodo."
Aragorn tracks Frodo to Amon Hen but finds no trace of him there. That's when Aragorn hears the Horn of Gondor and runs to find Boromir near-death, pierced by many arrows, and sitting up against a big tree. At least 20 dead orcs are laying around him. Boromir confesses that he tried to take the Ring from Frodo and apologizes and said he has paid the price, also telling Aragorn that the two hobbits were bound but still alive. Aragorn encourages Boromir and tells him that he is a conqueror and that few men have ever gained such a victory over an enemy. Boromir pleads with Aragorn to go to Minis Tirith and save his people. Aragorn tries to ask Boromir which way the orcs took the hobbits, but Boromir dies. Legolas and Gimli arrive just as Boromir passes away.
This is also when they first discover that someone is breeding a powerful, bigger version of orc (the Uruk-Hai) as many of the orc bodies are larger, almost man-like. They conclude that it must be Saruman as the orcs have an "S elf-rune" emblazoned on them. Gimli at first thinks it is "S for Sauron" but Aragorn and Legolas know that Sauron doesn't use that name and doesn't use Elf runes either.
This is one of the only times in the books where Aragorn shows any kind of wavering or uncertainty. He feels as though he has failed and the Fellowship is lost without Gandalf. He's not even certain whether to go search for Frodo or follow the trail of the orcs who took Merry and Pippen. It's a tough couple of chapters for Aragorn.
Honestly I prefer the way the book handles Aragorn’s internal conflict about which way to go. In the movie he seems to forsake his duty to Frodo way too quickly and suddenly. In the book, as you say, he is heavily tempted to follow Frodo and it takes time for him to realize he has played his part in Frodo and Sam’s journey and now he must focus on the other hobbits.
Boromir❤
nobody but frodo could've gotten the ring that far, the balance of small ambition to mental strength was just right in him, boromir was too ambitious and the ring could attack him easily, and sam would've been slightly too weak, nobody in middle earth was a better fit than frodo.
I think a young Bilbo could have done it
I still think Sam could do it
But in the end no one is immune to the ring. Some can be more resistant but no one is immune, if you are at the edge of Mount Doom you will give in to its corruption.
@@ClaudevonRiegan_ No man......
@@conn_man_249THANK YOU! Everyone keeps attacking Frodo for giving in, as if ANYONE could’ve overpowered the will of the Ring.
When I first saw this when young, I thought he was crying in fear of the coming Uruk-hai instead of it being his regretful sadness.
Awwwww he's so small
The thing you have to remember is the ring is what is causing this. Boromir was corrupted by the ring and his actions are being driven by its presence. He’s being driven literally mad by it and has no will to resist. Most don’t which is why the ring is so evil.
"you will betray us - you will give the ring to Sauron"
2 movies later
standing in Mt Doom "the ring is mine..."
*The whole ensuing debacle is a failure (learning experience) of Aragorn's leadership.*
He is used to leading teams of Rangers, who are totally self-sufficient in their survival/tactical skills. He didn't enforce the buddy system (not a joke, they do this in the military for a reason). He let Frodo, the most important and vulnerable team member wander off. He let Boromir wander off, too, which is an impending danger to Frodo. Aragorn twice before witnessed Boromir almost grab the ring (Council of Elrond and on Caradhras). He should have known better. He should have delegated the task of unloading the canoes and kept Sam on Frodo-guard.
Anyone heard the 'Gollum' sound at 2:35?
U Can Hear The Sound Of Temptation Start At 0:43
I'm still shocked how I remembered Boromir from my first watch: antagonistic a*hole who just wants the ring.
When I finally watched the extended version he became my favorite character because of how human he is
Yes, I may have been young when i watched fellowship the first time, but i always had a soft spot for this type of character. I even if I wouln't have remembered the whole movie, i would have remembered his character-type!
At least i found out why it was the way it was: i saw a pretty strange television cut, that just threw many scenes that showed his motivations and feelings. him and aragorn in lothlorien? gone. Him teaching the hobbits? gone. him trying to keep gimli from running back into the mines? you guessed it: gone. Seemed this version put some scenes from the extended version back in, but got rid of some of the theatrical cut .-.
