"The end, where Boromir scares Frodo into running away. There was supposed to be suspense there about the fate of all, and powerful indecision on Aragorns part as to what to do. This was a cliff hanger of the strongest type in the book (which by virtue of reading them twenty years after their publication I was not victim of) and the movie has a lot of 'loose ends' neatly wrapped up."

This was THE key scene of the movie, and IMHO, they screwed it up. They're NOT supposed to know where Frodo's gone. And Boromir's death was much more tragic/noble in the book and even in the animated feature by Ralph Bakashi.

I just don't understand why the director felt compelled to make these changes.
