The Human Problem
What is it about Boromir's temptation to take the ring that is so uniquely Christian in its orientation?
Uploaded on May 29, 2010
Boromir was honourable and noble; he believed passionately in the greatness of his kingdom and would have defended its people to the very last. Boromir's great stamina and physical strength, together with a forceful and commanding personality, made him a widely-admired commander in Gondor's army: he was made Captain of the White Tower, and quickly became Captain-General, also bearing the title High Warden of the White Tower. He was also heir apparent to the Stewardship. Boromir led many successful forays against Sauron's forces, prior to his journey north to Rivendell, which brought him great esteem in his father Denethor's eyes.
Fallen - Frodo/Sam
Uploaded on Aug 2, 2009
Description:
The majority of this video focuses on Frodo/s disappointment/failure of "falling" into temptation with the ring by following its will (like putting it on). Frodo is slowing beginning to lose everything because of the rings power and although he does try his best he does fall into submission to the ring. Frodo doesn't realize that the ring is taking him (sometimes) so Sam argues with Frodo to try to get him to see that the ring is changing him (that's where the "I told you so" comes in). I felt the lyrics really told the story more then anything which is why I decided to add some text to the video, I hope you all understanding what I was trying to interpret. Enjoy!
