SCOD - The words of a snake

"Gandalf the Grey is coming" – Gríma "Wormtongue" "Captain Obvious" son of Gálmód, 2nd March TA3019. Feel free to answer any, all or none of the following questions. 1) How does this image make you feel? 2) Both of the characters in this shot have pretty extreme facial make-up. What do you think of the decision to make Gríma so slimy-looking? What do you make of Théoden’s appearance? 3) Music Question! From when our four-person Fellowship enter the Golden Hall, we get some very tension-building music (I believe it is a theme for Wormtongue). Do you think it is appropriate, and how do you think the scene would be with a less obviously tense soundtrack? (The music to which I refer is approximately 0:24-1:27 on "The Court of Meduseld", TTT-CR Disc 2 Track 2, or a bite-sized version at about 1:54-2:10 on "Edoras" on the OST. You can listen to it here.) 4) Any further comments?

Brad Dourif is amazing in this scene. I love his delivery of "I told you to take the Wizard's staff!"

"More subtle" is not necessarily "better"

But how many people actually notice something like that?

But was Tolkien really subtle himself? //

What's subtlety got to do with it?

The bit of music I'm talking about, which plays over this, is not in 5/4
