I remember how scary that scene was the first time I saw it.

I find myself holding my breath no matter how many times I've seen it!

Ah, one of the best FOTR movie scenes (vying closely with Aragorn scaring the Hobbits in Bree XD)... The last time Cami and I watched this, Cami's like: "Boy. Talk about the worst two people of the fellowship to be in this kind of jeopardy: the Ring Bearer and future King of Gondor." That woulda been one big "oops," if they'd fallen, and made for a rather different story. LOLz.

That's a very good point! Nothing like upping the tension by putting the two arguably most indispensable characters in such extreme and immediate peril!

I had the same thought when I first saw this scene. PJ certainly knew what he was doing!

[cairistiona7.livejournal.com]

He did at that, in most areas!

A very tense scene indeed.

Definitely a sweaty-palms inducer!

That's such a nice, wonderful, angsty scene! That's one of the moments where I don't mind at all that PJ didn't exactly stick to the book. *g*

I do wonder how many different places the Professor, if he's able to see this film in Heaven, thought, "Oh, I wish I'd thought of that!" *g*

One of my favorite scenes! It made me very nervous the first time I saw it! And the musical score also just makes that part of the movie.

I *love* the score from that section, and really from the entire Moria sequence. Good stuff!
