Frodo great who is that

In the movies, he was portrayed by Elijah Wood. When he was twelve years old, his parents were killed in a boat accident.

From then on he lived with his uncle Bilbo Baggins, who later made him his adoptive son and heir. Seventeen years later, Frodo learns, to his horror, from Gandalf that the ring is the One Ring of Sauron.

Gandalf explains to him that the ring must be destroyed. Frodo is wounded on the right shoulder during the journey, while fleeing, but with the help of Aragorn and the Elf Legolas, he reaches Rivendell just in time, where he is healed. Later — after the decision of the council of Elrond — he sets off with the Fellowship of the Ring to Mordor to throw the ring into the fires of Mount Doom and thus destroy it.

He wears armor made of mithril, which saves his life several times. The armor was given to him by Bilbo, who in turn received it from Thorin Oakenshield. At the Rauros Falls, he is separated from the rest of the Fellowship after Boromir tried to forcibly take the Ring from him.

Sam and Frodo are eventually betrayed by Gollum, who lures them into the trap of the terrible spider Shelob. After being stung by the spider, the unconscious Frodo is captured by orcs and taken to the Tower of Cirith Ungol. From there Sam rescues him; Sam also, believing that Frodo had been killed by the spider, took the Ring with him. The Ring becomes more and more of an unbearable burden for Frodo, despite the surprising tenacity of the Hobbits, which previously only Gandalf suspected.

Finally, Frodo is so influenced by the power of the ring that he is unable to throw the ring into the fire and claims it for himself. Gollum, himself a former ring bearer who followed the hobbits to Mount Doom, relieves him of the decision by greedily biting off his ring finger and, in a rapture of joy, plunging into the fires of Mount Doom over the regained ring.

Frodo and Sam are rescued by the eagles from Mount Doom and taken to the victorious army under the leadership of the future king, Aragorn, where they are celebrated as heroes. Finally, Frodo returns to the Shire. Two years later, still burdened by his various injuries from his adventures, Frodo and Bilbo get permission to sail with the Elves and Gandalf from the Gray Harbors, the last port of the Elves, to the Undying Lands Valinor.

Samwise Gamgee is one of the main characters in J. He is a Shire-based Hobbit and the best friend and companion of Frodo Baggins on his journey to Mordor. Most of the trilogy concerns itself with Frodo and Sam making their way to Mount Doom, with Frodo becoming more and more sickened by the presence of the One Ring.

It seems to take all of his willpower not to give in to its promise of unimaginable power. His relationship with the Ring in the books is very different, though a sort of power is bestowed. In the books, Frodo becomes much more like a prophet. The ring imbues him with the wisdom to see into the future after a fashion, which is why he allows Gollum to lead him and Sam.

He's fully aware they'll be double crossed, but he also knows Gollum is the only one capable of getting them to Mordor. Frodo appears a young and inexperienced hobbit in the films, incapable of undertaking a dangerous journey to the Prancing Pony, let alone Mordor. He needs friends to help him on his journey, which is why he gets the help of Merry, Pippin, and Samwise. There was one more member of their party that the films leave out.

In the books, Sam, Merry, Pippin, and Fatty Bolger are the hobbits who decide Frodo can't go on his quest alone, and thus conspire to aid him. The first three go on with Frodo and encounter the Black Riders, while Fatty Bolger stays behind to keep up the appearance that Frodo is still in the shire. In the films, Frodo and Sam are best pals, and although Sam is Frodo's gardener revealed in The Two Towers , it doesn't mean that there's any inequality between them.

It's this bond that ensures Sam will always see to Frodo's safety, and why he'll never leave his side. In the books, the relationship is different.

Sam is still Frodo's gardener in the books , and that status makes him take on a much more humble role in the Fellowship. He isn't an equal part of it, but considered Frodo's manservant that will see to his needs, as well as cook the meals and such.

In his version, the four hobbits return to an uninterrupted world, where hobbits kept leading their lives blissfully unaware their world might have ended.

In the books, Saruman escapes Oranthc and descends upon The Shire with a vengeance, while Nazgul and orcs plow through its lands.

The four hobbits return and put things right, to the jubilant appreciation of all. They are treated like heroes, and there is a much more digestible ending. He bore the One Ring longer than anyone else except for Sauron, of course. Yes, it prolonged his life but, undermined his health at the same time. Probably because of this, Frodo decides to leave Middle-earth at the end of the trilogy.

He is entirely changed during his long and weary journey. No doubt, Frodo is a great hobbit who managed to save the world, despite his giving in at the last crucial moment — the Ring took final possession of him. And if it were not for Gollum everything could have ended differently. But it would have been another story …. About J. Tolkien Literary work of J.
