The most outstanding part of the trilogy, different from the background of the first part and the protagonist of the third part, the second part is a group play, and the heroes of Middle-earth have shown in this part. The light of humanity, withstood the pressure in the darkest moments, and ushered in the first ray of dawn in times of despair. Unlike the auras of the protagonists such as the Frodo Emperor Gandalf, the supporting characters of this film also brought to Middle-earth. hope:
The King of Rohan
Rohan and Gondor are a bit sympathetic. Neither the king nor the prime minister can work, and they exile their generals. The difference is that after the curse is lifted, the king of Rohan still refuses Gandalf's suggestion to fight back, but leads a large group of troops. Retreat to Helm's Deep, self-destruct the Wall, and give up the advantage of the cavalry plains assault. Finally, at the end, he fought side by side with Aragorn, led the remaining cavalry, and recklessly charged towards the orcs. Elves moving westward, abandoning Middle-earth, and abandoning human beings are all discussing whether human beings are a race worth saving. They are greedy, cowardly, thirsty for wealth, power, and have endless desires. And King Rohan and Aragorn are the hope of mankind, courage, kindness, honor, and sacrifice for others.
2. Gollum
The second part's portrayal of Gollum is too positive, so that the third part begins with the legend of Gollum's past life. When Bilbo Baggins put the knife on Gollum's neck, he remembered what Gandalf said when he stabbed him. The original meaning of the sword is to learn to forgive. Now Frodo also gives Guru respect and kindness. And the good side of Gollum is stimulated. It can be said that without Gollum, Sam and Frodo may never reach Mount Doom. In this episode, Gollum saves Frodo and the Lord of the Rings many times, and is called Master Frodo, a sincere helper. Although in the end, he was blackened again because of his arrest, but because of the kindness of this session, people can't hate him.
3. Farmer
Farmer's older brother, Jackfruit, is a complicated character who, on the one hand, was bewitched by the Lord of the Rings and almost killed Frodo, on the other hand, gave his life to protect the Hobbit. He is not lacking in courage and kindness, but his thirst for strength makes him lose himself. Farmer's character setting is more complicated. He has lived in the shadow of his brother since he was a child, and his biological father is not welcome. He has always wanted to prove himself. The most simple and direct way is to give the Lord of the Rings to the Prime Minister of Gondor. Even the elf king said that the fate of Middle-earth now rests in the hands of this young human general, because he is so close to the Lord of the Rings and within his grasp. And the reason why he took the Lord of the Rings was so good, at the critical moment, Farmer kept his conscience, resisted the temptation, and let Frodo go.
4. Sam
Sam, who was involved in the Lord of the Rings expedition just because of overhearing, shines in this episode. If Frodo chooses the Lord of the Rings tour, it is in his bones that Baggins' adventurous spirit and kind nature can be controlled. The Lord of the Rings, then Sam's contribution is more pure and precious. He is like an ordinary person who is involved in a great event. Because of simplicity, he is more determined. In Frodo, he was eroded by the Lord of the Rings. It was Sam who said it loudly. There is always something worth fighting for. When everything is over, Frodo can move westward to the Happy Continent because of the Fellowship of the Ring, and Sam just returned to Shire, married and had children, and lived the most ordinary life. This is the real legend of heroes.
Five, Iowen
Although I complained that Iowen was an old-fashioned actress when I watched it for the first time, when I watched it this time, I felt that she was the protagonist of the line of the Kingdom of Rohan. Ning Chen bewitched the king because he wanted to get this princess. When the elder brother was exiled, the king's uncle was unconscious, and there was a minister next to him who was plotting against him. This human princess not only resisted the erosion of darkness, and always took care of the king with humility, but also asked to participate in battle many times when disaster struck to defend her family and the country. It can be said that Eowyn defended the collapsed building of Rohan Kingdom, guarded the king, the heroine, and killed the head of the Nazgul in the third part. She will be the legend of Rohan, queen.
6. Yawen
The elf princess Yawen fell in love with the emperor without hesitation. Under the persuasion of her father, even Aragorn persuaded her to go to the Western Paradise to avoid the danger of catastrophe in Middle-earth. She also obeyed the arrangements of her lover and her father, and set foot on the road to the west, but at a critical moment, she still chose the emperor, abandoned immortality, chose the love of a lifetime, and blocked everything. It can be said that without Yawen's firmness, King Elrond would not help humans, and it was his daughter's choice that reversed the position of the elves. The battle of Helm's Deep directly sent elites to the emperor's command.
7. Aragon
The Ranger Aragorn and the Human Emperor Aragorn are the protagonists of the trilogy. After the Lord of the Rings trilogy, the elves and wizards withdrew from Middle-earth and handed over the world completely to humans. If the elves symbolize the nobles in the real world, the humans represented by Aragon are the representatives of the middle-class people. The second part is the growth of Aragorn. When he saw the pile of burning orc corpses and the hobbit's belt, Aragorn had a rare collapse, and he felt despair. The Fellowship of the Ring had fallen apart at the end of the first part, Gandalf fell into the abyss, and more deadly than Jackfruit's death was his betrayal, the Wall always crumbled from within. Many people don't understand why the trio has to chase after the strong orcs to save the two irrelevant Merry and Pippi, because this is Aragorn's promise to Frodo.
After being attacked by wolf knights and falling off a cliff, Aragorn experienced life and death. At the call of Yawen, he woke up from death and climbed his warhorse, reborn from ashes, and has no fear since then. In Helm's Deep, he became a half-orc. When the army came, only Aragorn never gave up. He fought to the last moment, raised his arms and shouted, and followed me. Finally, at dawn, he waited for the ray of light from the east.
