In this scene is where Aragon and the rest of the Fellowship have to fight off the Uruk-Hais who are on a quest to find Frodo and the ring, which he possesses. The scene opens when Aragon walks confidently into battle of the charging Uruk-Hais, which easily turns into a handicapped melée. This scene comprises of (order of appearance) Aragon, Uruk-Hais, Sam, Frodo, Legolas, Gimli, Pippin, Merry, and Boromir. "The Breaking of the Fellowship- objective through the eyes of Peter Jackson was to reveal that in the heat of battle, they had to make the sacrifice of letting Frodo go about his quest alone, breaking the fellowship, and releasing him from protection.
The acting of this scene was very well done, the most outstanding moment of the scene obviously had to have been "Boromir's Last Stand- as the director, Peter Jackson, liked to call it. This is where Boromir is sadly executed from the story while trying to protect the hobbits. The shot comprised of Boromir refuses to fall to his death while enduring three arrows to the upper body before he can be brought to his knees during combat. With every shot, Sean Bean (Boromir) made it very believable, by the way his body was moved heavily as contact was made. Also his facial expressions were also very believable as the arrows made impact with his chest and abdomen. What also made the shot spectacular was the mellow instrumental soundtrack that that gave a deep sense of "submersion-, like Boromir is fatally sinking after each shot he gets, as Boromir struggles to protect the hobbits. It makes the shot seem almost poetic, an objective of director Peter Jackson.
The fight was also very well done, although what seem to be very unbelievable, from a realistic point of view, is that the Uruk-Hais' endurance of attack were very limited from a pack of "lean mean fighting warriors-. It was not believable that the Uruk-Hais were eliminated so easily with very little of a fight individually.
