Apr 22, 2015 at 5:58 comment added Paul Draper @Mario, true. I felt a key difference was "I pass the test" vs "I have passed the test". I.e. she chooses to decline vs she happened to decline

Apr 22, 2015 at 1:45 comment added jpmc26 @Mario I dunno. The exclamation points all over the place seem to suggest shouting or excitement, and the words themselves are pretty dramatic. I don't think she sounds in control of herself at all, and I think that fact is emphasized by her sounding "sad" and her declaration of "pass[ing] the test." Rather, she sounds like she is about to let loose a massive pent up desire for the ring. And after she speaks, something dramatic and powerful happens with her ring glowing, so the movie's crazy glowing and wind and echo voice are only a tad over the top. So the movie portrayal isn't that bad.

Apr 20, 2015 at 13:58 comment added Mario This scene really bothered me when I saw the movie. When I read the book, I got the sense that the temptation was a grave matter, but that Galadriel was always in possession of herself. In the movie she seemed almost out of control, and not simply relieved but even half-surprised when she says the words "I pass the test." I loved the movie, but I feel that scene was done all wrong. They shouldn't have "turned it up to eleven."
