- (Part 2) At the end of the LotR-trilogy, when standing at the Grey Havens, Frodo reveals that he will be going with the last ship to leave Middle-Earth, to the shock and grief of his friends. (HD Blu-ray)
This scene is so emotional, sad and heartbreaking, but still so beautiful and a perfect ending.

The best ending, to the best movie, to the best story, of all time.
And best music. There are films have 17 Oscars... (sorry for my bad English).
Fk true bro ❤️❤️
Great movie of all movies ever
In the book, Sam leaves too in the same ship.
@@gunner4ever924 doesnt he leave after rosie dies?
The smile that frodo gives, in my opinion, is the first really genuine smile he has given for the first time since he was burdened with the ring. It's almost like a relief for him, he's finally getting the rest he deserves
He smiled after Ring was destroyed and Sam said "Yes Mr.Frodo its over now"
It’s his real smile.
Rest and also extreme boredom. The only person he can talk to and shoot the shit with in the Havens is Bilbo. Just one other hobbit in existence. Nothing else to do or enjoy, just rest until the end of all time. Frodo got badly screwed in the end for all his hardship and efforts.
@@akshaynatu6568 His souls is fcked up from the long travel with the ring, he needs to leave the middle earth to be happy
@@SkateandScoote How can a Hobbit be happy in the Havens? There's nothing for them to do there. It's just sleep.
Imagine saying goodbye to a friend who you literally walked into hell for.
Not just that, but carried him there.
Sams the real hero
Frodo still suffered, though. I think Sam understood why he needed to leave. Sam is the hero, but that's no reason to look down on what Frodo suffered.
This must be horrible for Merry and Pippin because they haven't seen Frodo for what.. Months or years? Months maybe and now he's leaving his friends forever:-( 😢😢
You can see the pain in Merry's eyes!
@@amandaeklund8136 i imagine they saw each other a bit in the years that they were back in the shire, but they would not have understood like Sam did, though Pippin seemed to (thanks to Gandalf). To me Merry looks the most shocked as he'd probably have the least amount of understanding and for me that makes it so much sadder. he did so much for Frodo and still lost him :( his eyes make me cry every time
For the recap, i searched out to find the fate of each member of Fellowship and i found interesting
1. Gandalf, as the only wizard who true to his cause, was the only wizard that permitted to sail back to his homeland in the west, in land of Aman
2. Frodo, as the ringbearer, also permitted to sail to the west live and heal physically and mentally after holding the one ring for long
3. Sam, as a companion, did bear the one ring for brief. Because of that, Sam too was permitted to sail west and (presumably) meet again with Frodo in land of Aman
4. Merry and Pippin, they both became an influental figure within Shire, as well as acknowledged as a councillor to represents Shire in court of Elessar. They spent their elder days in Gondor and laid in tomb of Kings of Gondor, as a token of respect
5. Aragorn, the king of Reunited Kingdom of Gondor, will continue to rule for next century or more, outlived both his loyal servant (Faramir, Steward of Gondor) and his trusted ally (Eomer, King of Rohan). He passed away in Gondor and laid to rest in Tomb of Kings, with Merry and Pippin laid beside him.
6. Legolas, the wood elf, lead some of his people to live in Ithilien. After Aragorn passed away, as custom for the Elves, Legolas will build his ship and allowed himself to sail to the west.
7. Gimli, the dwarf, lead some of his people to live near Helms Deep and make a new dwarven realm. After Aragorn passed away, He too will follow Legolas, as a token for their friendship, to sail to the west. Gimli is the only Dwarf that permitted to do so
They have their ways to depart from Middle earth and all of them will gain a peace, happy, and blissful ending
Legolas' people were the Wood-elves, the Nandor, the elves of the Valley, who never made it to Aman in the first place. The only people who were leaving the shores were the Noldor, the High Elves.
@@PathikritGhosh007 Legolas and Gimli sailed to the West. It's buried somewhere in the appendices of 'Return of the King''
@@PathikritGhosh007 Legolas' people were Nandor but Legolas himself was Sindar.
@@dodgyvideo Appendices. It is said they sailed together from Pelargir. What I meant to say is that it was not custom for the Nandor to leave middle-earth
To leave middle earth? Im not to familiar with the backstories of lotr besides only the movies. They basically going to die?
My favorite line "We set out to save The Shire, Sam, and it has been saved. But not for me." Gets me every time.
I cried at that part
this makes me think of soldiers with PTSD, they save their countries but sometimes in doing so, they've unable to enjoy the peace that they secured with their sacrifice. I disagree with lot of wars (not all) but I do sympathize with the situation
@Ben Paulley The mental effects of the ring on Frodo damaged his mind, like PTSD or depression, etc. He cannot find happiness in middle earth anymore. He has been altered by it in a way that nothing can fix it. Nothing except sailing with Gandalf and the rest of the Elves into a land of purity, only there can Frodo find peace and recover from the effects of the ring.
That line is the stroke of the brush that made the story into a masterpiece.
That line is also directly from the book.
Tolkien understood war. He knew how it leaves scars that never truly heal. Frodo's anguish is so palpable and is written so well because it comes from the mind of a man who fought and suffered through one of the worst wars in human history and lived with the trauma of it all his life.
He also knew that the bond formed between brothers-in-arms was unbreakable.
... this may just be the best explanation of one of the best scenes in movie/novel history
not even Sam could understand all the pain, anguish, suffering and weight that Frodo went through because of the ring. Wounds that will never fully heal, even after the destruction Frodo still feels the full weight the ring brought him.
Tolkien recognized PTSD, which too many in his time did not. He understood that after what Frodo went through he had wounds in his mind and soul that could not be healed simply by returning to life in the Shire, much as too many real world soldiers struggle to find peace in civilian life after the horrors of war. This was meant to be a happy ending for Frodo. He would go to Aman where none of the painful memories of Middle Earth would confront him everywhere he looked and where he could live out his life in true peace surrounded by wonders.
Sir Tolkien also understood thw downfall of nations, including post-Trump Murica.
One of the greatest parts was when Frodo stepped onto the ship and smiled back at Sam, Merry and Pippin. At that moment he was himself again.
Agreed. Same with Bilbo.
“I think I’m quite ready for another adventure” that line and Frodo’s last smile at the hobbits. It’s nice their old happy selves came out one last time before departing
When Frodo looks back from the ship, and you can see the color returned to his face and realize how pained he had been until then…
His eyes cleared up too and he doesn't look tired anymore
He looks so adorable!
It’s been 18 years since I first saw this in theaters, yet to this day I can’t help but tear up every single time I watch this.
You are not alone!
Same this is so touching. You guys are not alone in this!
Same here
I was ten years old when I saw this scene at the cinema. My heart was immediately captured and tears came naturally. My parents couldn't understand what was happening there. And now that I'm going to my thirties, every time I watch it tears naturally reappear.
Same
Merry had spoken to Eowyn about how the only thing keeping him going in the face of all this despair was his desire to see his friends safe and well. You can see the grief in Dominic's eyes, as Merry realizes that even though they had succeeded, this was still the last time he would ever see Frodo.
I like to think that when Sam prepared to follow Frodo to the West after Rosie’s death, Merry, Pippin, and Aragorn all wrote letters to Frodo letting him know how they were doing and what they accomplished in their lives, and Sam brought all the letters with him to give to Frodo.
thank you for pointing this out aaaaaand now im crying
That's gotta be the biggest tear-jerker moment I've ever witnessed in a movie.
😂 It tears me every few minutes 🤣
One thing I really love about this scene is what Peter Jackson and the crew did for Frodo. While it is clearly shown that Frodo never really healed bearing the ring, even after it was destroyed he says this. But in every scene since the ring was destroyed he still looks depressed and a bit pale, even in scenes where he is happy and laughing (Sam's wedding). It isn't until he turns back to his friends while on the boat that you physically see life in his eyes and color in face again. he literally has rosy cheeks and the bags under his eyes are gone. Just love that detail that he is on his way to truly healing, can be at peace, and that it happens the moment he let's go. I'm sure its written in the book, a testament to Tolkein's beauty in words, but these little details are what make these movies so beautiful as well.
I wanted to comment in the same way, but you've just done so in the most eloquent manner possible. Totally agree with what you're saying. It's all there in the direction and the actors performances. Not a dry eye in the house, as they say. :)
Well said sir! Tolkien is often quoted as saying he despised Allegorical works, but you perfectly encapsulated how Frodo sailing to Valinor is an exquisite allegory to the trauma and permanent wounds that war leave behind. Thank you for your truly heartfelt and passionate comment
PS-if you haven’t read the books, I cannot recommend them enough. The movies do a fantastic job for the most part, but there’s nothing like experiencing this journey from JRR’s writing
Sam is the heart of Lord of the Rings. There would be no direction without him. He makes the entire trilogy work. With all the wars and adventures, he made all worthwhile. True love. true loyal friendship and brotherhood. Sam is devastatingly understated in the triology. I wish we all had a Sam in our lives
Sam is the TRUE hero.
@@Bonygasse and if it weren’t for Sam, Frodo wouldn’t have made it near Mordor
Sam was always, the entire time, connected to what was important. He never lost hope, always kept connected to seasoned roast chicken, the Shire, better days. He never left behind his home, he was always, the entire journey, looking forward to returning to his norm. And that, he did in the end.
it sounds cliche but its true and the amazing thing is that Sam's "power" is the only one in the movie that any of us can actually use in real life. We dont have elven eyes, a magical staff, or the blood of Numenor and Isildur in our veins.......but we all have a heart and can build friendship, brotherhood, and love if we choose.
It was as so in the books as well.
The smile that Frodo shares with his friends one last time as he boards the boat is a clear sign that, having now let go of Middle Earth and The Shire, he is already on the road to healing from the horrors he endured as a Ringbearer.
"But I would like to think that he may at last have found a small measure of peace, that all of us seek, but few of us ever find."
-- quote from The Last Samurai
"Smile, though your heart is aching.
Smile, even though it's breaking"
-- Charles Chaplin
I love how Pippin's reaction is almost the most mature, when he started out the most immature
Elijah Wood was so perfect as Frodo.
And Sean Astin was a perfect Sam
Yes! He was born to play Frodo
Yes. They are my hobbits 100% i couldn't get into the animated version after this but i saw the live action before anything else lol
Honestly, he should’ve gotten more awards, or at least nominations, for his performance. It’s flawless.
@@eej1983able I actually saw the animated movie shortly before this one. I think it was terrible😅
Dont worry Sam, you'll see Frodo again many years later when you leave the Grey Havens.
It's just sad that Merry and Pippin never went to the Grey Havens
@@professionalidiot5529 they lived happily and died in Gondor. Their graves are at Minas Tirith. I think for a hobbit that’s something so big.
@@thelordofthememes8702 and they were buried with Aragorn and among all the rulers of Gondor.
@@thiagocordeiro5475 that may be a bit of a stretch cause he didnt have the ring as long as frodo.
@@Cloofinder Ring bearer is depends on whether he is justice, but not the times he hold. Sam doesn't hold the ring so long, but he holds it is to destroy it, so he is considered as a ring bearer, while Gollum isn't, even the fact that he holds the ring for 500 years.
Would you believe this is one of the first scenes they recorded? Yep. The characters spill their hearts out as the journey finally ends, and it was one of the first things they filmed.
Speaks to the their talent as actors.
I imagine had they done the farewell filming last, they would need to do quite a lot of re-takes between some intense tears. The actors became very, very close.
Kinda funny how they constantly had to reshoot this as well
From clothing error (lookin at ya Sean Astin) to camera error, some shit just constantly goes south until finally, they are done with this
@@shadowhunter-mi5su and if you look, the very last shot with Sam has that clothing error kept in, as he's missing his yellow vest
No it wasn't
I think that’s a common place. It doesn’t fit with the acting.
That's heavy. The impossible weight of knowing you will never see again someone you love: not because of death, just different paths. That person still lives, and his life goes on, his thoughts flow and you know all of this. That person lives, just not in your life.
Thankfully, this wasn’t the case for Sam. Tolkien wrote that he went to the West and reunited with Frodo after Rosie died. But your words sadly ring true for Merry and Pippin. Heartbreaking.
I remember when the films came out and received their accolades, there were complaints from main-stream celebrities that the ending was too long-winded and some even left the theater early. Filmmakers who aren't dedicated to the story would have shortened the ending. No proper goodbyes, no tears, just a "And they lived happily ever after." But not Peter, Fran, and Philippa. Bless them for giving this trilogy the ending it needed.
and to think they didnt even include the sacking of the shire lol
@@voncinnamon1 it probably could work as a standalone sequel, but sadly saruman is already killed earlier.
@@rizkyadiyanto7922 Peter Jackson would probably make 3 movies out of 2 chapters
It could have been an easy out for Peter Jackson to end it with the crowning of Aragon but no great story truly has an happy ending. LOTR was about war and Fredo was the innocent youth who gets forever tarnished and you can never go home again.
@@voncinnamon1 and 2 of those 3 would just be a scenic tour of NZ
That hug Sam and Frodo had is everything. The acting was so on-point. Love the entire cast.
And people say GOT is better than this lmfaaooo!
This is how you do an ending.
Some people who say GOT is better have never read about the F.A. Or the S.A. And have only seen these movies well done to the movies still but if I drew a 50 foot line this would be maybe 5 feet of all the great works Tolkien has to offer.
@@kendrickholland8750 Periodtt. I'm not going to sh*t over GOT but guurl, this masterpiece vs a reused medievil trope....
@@dejanstarwars10 I’m not either I enjoyed GOT I thought it was cool but it’s to me like comparing Star Wars and space balls
GOT can't do a scene like this. It's too obsessed with being clever, ironic, and deconstructing archetypes, though, toward the end, it couldn't even do that. Fundamentally, to evoke these kind of emotions, you need to be, at least on some level, wholesome, and that's something GOT rejected from its conception.
If GRRM would have finished the last 2 damn books when season 1 started airing, we could have had a similar ending to LOTR. Hate D&D all you want, and yeah they did a colossal shit job the final seasons, they did run out of source material to adapt. The first 4 seasons of GOT is peak television because it was pretty damn faithful to the books
“We set out to save the Shire Sam, and it has been saved, but not for me.”
I can only imagine how impactful this line is to war veterans
Gosh this scene is so emotional especially with the music. I probably wouldn’t have teared up as much without it. Howard Shore is awesome.
and the way it seamlessly transitions into Annie Lennox's "into the west" (Howard Shore Producer... lol)
The thing that makes me cry isn’t the tearful goodbye they give each other, with the hugging and the forehead kiss and whatnot. I can make it through all that just fine. But what breaks me every time is watching Frodo step onto the boat, turn around, and give them what must have been his biggest smile in years. This movie is unmatched.
Everytime I finished this film I cry, no matter how many times I watch it. The greatest film of all time.
Remember being in the theater at 0:05 and the sound of everyone's, gasps, hearts breaking and sobs beginning simultaneously? What a moment in time
They didnt even had to act here, those tears had to be real. LOTR is the greatest trilogy of all time !!!
0:59 that hug that Merry gives him always sticks out in my mind. During this finally The camera pushes in on his eyes as if he’s reliving the horrors of the journey with Frodo.
This is such a bittersweet moment for me every time. Yes, the heroes get the happily ever after they deserve. But for us the viewers that means no more epic fights, no more feasting and celebrating, no more jokes or clever lines between our favorite characters, no more breathtaking scenery and sets, no more inspiring soundtracks. This journey was unlike anything I'd ever seen before, and every time I see this ending I wonder if I will ever see another story quite like it.
Sam goes after his wife dies and kids grow up tears later. So do gimli and legolas go after Aragorn passes away
From what I remember its just speculation that Gimli went on that adventure. He probably did for Galadriel though.
I wanted to learn of the source of this. I do not doubt its veracity, for it would make sense given that Sam had temporarily been the Ringbearer, but I should very much like a source. Was it one of Tolkien's letters?
@@mikemal4398 that’s what I choose to believe
As for Sam, the telling of significant FA events in the Shire contains this:
“1482 Death of Mistress Rose, wife of Master Samwise, on Mid-year’s Day. On September 22 Master Samwise rides out from Bag End. He comes to the Tower Hills, and is last seen by Elanor, to whom he gives the Red Book afterwards kept by the Fairbairns. Among them the tradition is handed down from Elanor that Samwise passed the Towers, and went to the Grey Havens, and passed over Sea, last of the Ring-bearers.”
@@SamvedIyer It's in Appendix B after the end of The Return of the King.
After all these years, EgalmothOfGondolin01 still on guard
Indeed, he seems to be the last of the old guard, the last of those who still bring forth that which matters
here after the ring of power, turned that shit off and went back to watch the trilogy.
Absolute masterpieces.
Damn, that show should be banned forever. What an insult!
As Han Solo would order "Turn it off!"
i have seen the LOTR trilogy more than 50 times in my life and this scene always brings me tears...This movies are a true masterpiece!! respect to Tolkien and Peter Jackson!! I dont know if there is or will be a story that i will revisit so many times in my life! I am grateful!
3:02 That change in the tune. That little moment there, where he stops, looks back and smiles, while the others are crying. I can NEVER keep it together. From childhood to adulthood. Ironically, the only OTHER movie that gets me this badly at the end is the 2005 remake of King Kong, also by Peter Jackson. I can't name another director that makes me cry with TWO different films. The Lord of the Rings is why I love books, and the Lord of the Rings is why I love cinema
Into the West, only played 3 times, when Gandalf comforts Pippin during the battle, when Frodo boards the ship and some of our heroes sail into the setting sun, and when the story finally closes, saying goodbye to the fans and viewers.
Very beautiful end! This is most sad... I cried, where I saw this scene... Then I thought about life, that it is finite. I love universe of Tolkien. I'm from Russia.
I cried so hard when I first saw this. It’s so emotional to see them part after all they’ve been through. But it seems like they all found happiness and peace in their respective lives.
My grandpa died two days ago, and in his funeral, all what I could think of was this scene, it keeped me thogether and thought maybe grandpa is in grey havens. And just like bilbo said that he was prepared for another adventure, im sure grandpa is!
He sure is!
Same feeling for us, it doesnt hurt that my grandfather was wise but tender just like Gandalf. Inshallah we will see them again
He sure is and you will meet again 😊
Frodo suffered what very few ever had, the total eclipsing hold the Ring of Power has on a person. You don't come back unchanged, you don't forget it's hold on you, you don't remember the life you had before the ring.
Nothing is harder in this life then saying goodbye to someone you love
This scene here still reminds me that the lord of the rings trilogy will always be the best thing ever made, thank you Tolkien for making the books, and Peter Jackson for faithfully making the movie trilogy 😢👍
My eyes sweat a little every time I see this.
Dammit, I'm 68 years old, and this scene STILL wrecks me!
I ALWAYS cry here. I'm still crying. In the book Sam stayed at the dock watching the ship sail away with Frodo at the stern waving above him the light of Galadriel. Tears.
That nod Frodo gives them at the end gets me every time. Looks so genuine
Frodo: "And it has been saved... but not for me..."
Sackville-Bagginses: "YEEEEE BOI!"
No matter how many times I watch this, even with the knowledge still that Frodo leaves, it makes me cry, every single time, this is the greatest movie trilogy of all time
We lost my sister at the beginning of the year, and she absolutely adored Lord of the Rings. She even made extensive notes studying the Elvish language. I find myself watching these movies a lot more these days, as well as others she loved. I guess as a way to keep connected to her. ❤ Needless to say, this scene hits differently when you lose someone that close to you.
Frodo as something divine in him. He was choosen. He is so strong and peaceful but also sweet and wise. I love him omg. Elijah Wood did a great job.
I have never made it through this scene without crying my eyeballs out. Every gotdamn time. 😭😭😭😢
I sobbed like a baby when I first watched. Such a beautiful bittersweet moment.
Me too it was heartbreaking 💔😭
If there is one film that moves me to tears, it is this one. No matter how old I am or how many times I have seen it. I cry.
I still cry at this scene. I'm 23
I still cry at this scene. I'm 41
Sir Ian has the sweetest smile as Gandalf, closely followed by Frodo, the burden and the care ... gone
I hope that the world of men will be saved one day
In real life, it's not possible
I love how Elijah Wood's eyes and tears are so beautiful in the whole epic, and here, there are no tears. I don't know how he does it.
As much as I adore what Sean Astin did with Sam (and Dominic and Billy with Merry and Pippin), I adore how Elijah brought Frodo to life, without even needing to say a word. His eyes (gosh, those eyes!) and his whole face, speak for him, whatever the emotions he has to convey. Absolutely breathtaking. He brought almost a touch of something elvish in Frodo. You can see his joy, but my God, can you feel his pain...
I came here and in tears after seeing what Amazon has done to "Lord of the Rings". My soul yearned for a refreshment and I am grateful for the real Lord of the Rings stories. The ones told, not for political "reworks"...
But the ones told from the heart of a War veteran, humble English professor, and one who put his heart and soul into his works.
I feel you my brother, crying my eyes out for this scene. This is a masterpiece.
@@xXxSadtechxXx Thank you brother.
Some may twist what they wish, but they could never undo what we've seen and what we love.
Is the Amazon one rly that bad? What did they do? Haven't watched yet
@@Sarah_Kinz I haven't watched the series yet because I've already seen there's an awful agenda behind it.
I can sum it up as basically the following:
Where Tolkien's works are strongly based on deep morals, Amazon's version "adaptation" is far more on looking good but the characters are empty shells.
This isn't about skin colour or a lack of coloured people. It's a primarily Northern European fantasy world, so naturally you'd get predominantly white or, as Tolkien put it, "fair skinned" people. But he did include darker skinned people from the East and Harad (the South). Much untapped potential there! But what does Amazon feel like doing?
"Not enough racial diversity! We'll add in dark skinned people amongst 99% light skinned people! We'll also change how the females are in charge, because we cannot have toxic masculinity take charge now, can we?"
Amazon would consider characters like Aragorn, Legolas, Gandalf "The White"...all racist. But if they were dark skinned they'd have no issues. This isn't a focus on racial equality, it's trying to twist the deep-found morals in Tolkien's works. THAT'S why his works, not unlike the Bible and other philosophies, speak to the hearts of mankind regardless of skin colour.
Amazon isn't unifying, they're twisting and defiling the deeper morals of humanity, using Tolkien's works as a vehicle bought by 1Billion dollars. But you can't buy morals. And twisting it will only lash back at them, mark my words.
@@Vikingr4Jesus5919 You aren't wrong.
I will never get over how real the emotions of the cast are, no other storie is closer to my heart than The Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit series.
The cast here are amazing, but it shouldn't be forgotten what Howard Shore did here, all those themes he developed all coalesce here to maximise the emotion - his work on this trilogy is utterly magnificent. 1:37 onwards has me in utter floods - an amazing reprise of a theme we'd become so accustomed to, but here played in such a bittersweet manner - it's no wonder people were walking out of this movie wet faced and a bit shell shocked.
Truly one of the greatest stories ever told, and likely one of the greatest that ever will be told.
So much emotion in this scene. How could anyone possibly go back to an ordinary life after everything these brave souls went through? I guess Frodo couldn't, in the end. Even Samwise in the books eventually set off in search of his old companion, many years later.
such a perfect cast. Everyone of them is unreplaceable
that smile- you'll be OK. I'll be OK.
this scene really conveys emotions that you can't deny the power of friendship is truly powerful
The finest motion picture tri ology ever conceived and produced. I love the film and music so much.
@3:27; you can see Frodo give his friends a nod as he turns away. I never noticed that after all these years, it is so subtle.
Best Film Trilogy ever!!!
Truly one the greatest trilogy ever made.. it will always be my favorite
It's almost as if Frodo becomes whole and alive again the moment He steps on the ship. At the same time becoming a memory in a different kind of way.
Saying goodbye is so hard to say but memories of them is eternal in here ❤
Samwise...how he promises to NEVER leave his Frodo, and now Frodo must leave him....that embrace before parting....nothing has moved me more in a movie, regardless of how many times I have seen it...
La amistad sincera vale mas que todo el oro del mundo y Frodo y sus tres amigos lo demuestran en esta gran película.
Howard Shore´s score for this trilogy is really close to my heart, just hearing the first few notes of some of these themes is enough to get me going and to me it truly feels like touching heaven.
It's Howard's masterpiece in my opinion. Loved his prior work but his work on this trilogy is truly his "magnum opus". Stunning work. I remember sitting in the cinema as the Prologue started in The Fellowship - I knew within a few minutes that this was going to be magical - and Howard did not disappoint.
For Sam, its like losing his brother
One of the most beautiful scenes ever put to film. A heartbreaking way to end the story, but that’s what sets these films apart from others like Harry Potter - these films are brave enough to go there and not just give you the happy ending. This is so much more down to earth, and so much more powerful
This is called timeless art.
Can you imagine any of these scenes without the soundtrack? Fabulous music!❤
This movie remind me of my father 😢we used to watch it together,i wish he is in a good place like this and we meet together like before ❤
If I lived to be as old as 1000 years old...I would still cry watching this scene.. my God it's beautiful and so emotional 😭😭
Tolkien is such a good writer, we didn't notice that the ship going back to Valinor is actually a metaphor for death. It's only a passage to the other side.
*PS: Check this section till the end, relevant discussion*
I hear you man!
When one journey ends, a whole new one begins
It's not.... If you look in legendarium. They are going to the undying lands
@@edarion01 so... You know LotR has a lot of christian influence, and the Undying Lands *is* Heaven, right ? Undying Lands is Valinor, land of the elves but it's called "Undying Lands" for a reason...
A place of eternal rest, makes sense ?
@@viktorsilva4017 actually they still die in the undying lands. It's only called that because the people there don't die. But yes Frodo would have died eventually.
"The last pages is for you, Sam." i felt this words so heavy and it hit me so hard.
this ending always gets me. such a beautiful finale
This whole goodbye is written so beautifully. It feels so wrong for Frodo to be apart from them, especially Sam, but we understand why he has to go, and we know that somehow, everything will be alright. Elijah Wood’s acting here is so incredible; you can see how Frodo is struggling to hold back tears because he knows how devastated his friends are and he wants to be strong for them and make sure that their last image of him in their minds won’t be of him in tears. So he rallies and smiles, but we know he’s about to let the dam break offscreen as the ship leaves.
I never noticed how pale Frodo was at the end compared to the other hobbits, showcasing that his life truly was fading. Nice makeup details.
Love is love ❤❤❤
It's just so beautiful and gets me every time...
The saddest part is knowing there will never be another film of this caliber in my lifetime. Perhaps, maybe never again.
I'm excited to see how the Amazon series measures up. I think it comes out in September.
I can't help but feel warmth when the movie ended. It was an epic worth all I know. I broke inside watching this phenomenon.
No matter how many times I watch this, it still always brings a tear to my eye. Most beautiful ending, to the most beautiful trilogy ever made. Thank you Peter Jackson, for making my childhood what it was largely in part to these incredible movies you made.
When I feel down, I come back to these, to remember the important things
After going to see all three movies at their release I really felt i was in that adventure like i felt exhausted through it all, thats how the film affected me, i really felt i lived through it, and this scene was the icing on the cake i did actually shed tears at the departure of those we came to know.
I can't even listen to the lotr music. Cuts me to the heart. Truly lotr is the greatest films of all time.
It doesn't hurt. It burns!
This is what I imagine proper dying is. You say goodbye to your closest friends. And willingly, by your own volition, come to deaths sweet embrace. To sail unto a new adventure.
“Do not go gentle into that good night” is a beautiful statement and poem. But I wouldn’t take them as anything more than ramblings of a grieving son. We cry over others death because it makes us lonely. But I think it very selfish to keep others here with us against their will. When the time comes, everyone should greet death smiling.
Please don't romanticise death. There are no happy endings, only quiet painless ones if we are fortunate.

Truly a heartwarming/heartbreaking scene.
Damn ninjas cutting onions around here.
i cried today watching this scene as hard as i cried back in 2003. What a beautiful ending.
This made a grown man cry. No not me, my dad was welling up with tears in the theater
Dang, thank you dude! I've always wanting to see lord of the rings as a kid, but when I found your channel it helps me a lot! Keep it up. I cry a little when I watch this because it's touching.
Each time I watch the ending from when the ring was destroyed, through the reunion with the Fellowship of the Ring, through Aragorn's coronation, when Gondor bows to the hobbits, to Frodo getting on board the ship, I cry with happiness and saddness. The emotions overwhelm me every time. What I particularly appreciate is that Jackson did not end the movie with the destruction of the ring and Mordor, like many other films do. He gave us a small glimpse of life after.
Heart wrenching especially for all who have lost loved ones they will always miss.
Thank you for doing this for us
