Black owns blonde any day.Strikes me as a stupid, random change by PJ: meaningless, not really any great effect, but still stupid anyway.

So now we're into our second page of discussion about the fact that film Faramir's hair is different in colour to that of book Faramir.Only on the Downs.

But when you think about it, to change the hair color of a rather major character isn't really nitpicking :/. Anyways, I only started this thread because it seemed to me that in all the other changes to Faramir that people were talking about, this one got lost (not to be to nitpicky). As I said before, though, I never even caught the change, so I can't complain to much here .

Exactly; a random change, considering Boromir's ahir is raven too, so it's random to make it blonde.
