Later, when the Council rejects Boromir’s idea to weaponize the Ring, he says, “So be it. Faramir is a capable man, but “since the way was full of doubt and danger,” says Boromir, “I took the journey upon myself.” 1 His brother Faramir has a disturbing dream, and wanted to seek counsel in Rivendell.

Because stories often show us characters who have been treacherous all along, or obviously leaning that direction. Boromir proves friendly and not antagonistic toward Aragorn, and it’s mostly by Boromir’s strength that the Fellowship escapes the deadly mountain Caradhras. Yes, Tolkien notes that Boromir is proud. Book Boromir does suggest using the Ring as a weapon, but accepts others’ veto of this idea. In my estimation, the film done Boromir wrong. The film shows from the Council of Elrond on that something is rotten in the state of the Fellowship-quite obviously, Boromir.
