This whole scene still gives me goosebumps. The score, the tight corners, the iconic rear in challenge, so perfect.

[@GuiSilva84]

Still gives me goosebumps to this day too. From the moment Arwen arrives and talks to Frodo, from the moment she handle the Wraiths, it's just pure perfection. How did you like the Rings of Power horse riding scenes though ? ( lol )

[@jamiehowarth0]

The overhead scenes where the 9 are chasing Arwen - in that V formation - are some of the best cinematography I've ever seen.

[@wolpertinger.]

@@jamiehowarth0 it would be a blast to be the stunt rider on that Andalusian. I trained an Andalusian filly once in my serious riding days. She was a breathtakingly beautiful dappled grey, and the power of that horse was incredible. It would have been hair-raising to gallop away from the nine. Man though is she ever holding that horse back. He'd go like snot if she gave him his head. They're such amazing, powerful horses.

An interesting thing about humans is that we actually have a faint glow that isn't visible to our eyes. Perhaps the elves have a visible glow?

[@DerBaronvonAnfa]

This Trilogy is just perfection. the direction, actors, music, camera, costumes...simply perfection

[@shaunw9092]

The horses of the Nazgul are like the best animal actors of all time here. They look hyper aggressive and are chomping at their bits.

[@wolpertinger.]

@@shaunw9092 they have some wicked bits in their mouths which is where a lot of that chomping comes from. Same with Arwen's horse. That horse would go like snot if she let up on the reins and gave him his head, same with the Nazgul's horses. This would have been a very challenging and dangerous scene to film. With all those trees and having to perfectly align the horses like fighter jets at an airshow. It makes sense they're riding with bits that give the riders a lot of leverage and control. Also the reason why Gandalf's stunt rider is god-tier. It's dangerous business riding a bare horse. I only really did that on mine. We were really bonded and in-synch but one day he was sick of my shit and put me in a tree 😅 the horse stunts in this trilogy has me so captivated

[@shaunw9092]

@wolpertinger. I've only rode bareback as kid at a walk, under supervision, I can't even imagine.

[@leval1000]

The horse was the real winner here!

[@KalanMiller]

Yes the horse was the hero of this scene. Amazing performance

[@nd6286]

I heard Viggo bought Liv's stunt double, Jane Abbot that horse as a gift.

[@tonys9397]

Such a king!

[@vincentjournee99]

Fun fact: we all know that Viggo bought Brego after the making of the film, but Liv's (Arwen) stunt double also had a very strong connection with her horse that you see in these scenes, but unfortunately couldn't afford her. Therefore Viggo bought her this horse without asking anything in return as a tribute to her skill and their mutual affection for these amazing animals. He truly is an ispiring actor and person. One of the few.

[@SilverSurfar]

The sheer terror on Arwens face before she starts chanting the spell as the Nazgul cross the river is whats missing in female characters these days. Shes strong, but still terrified.

[@Lazarenko93]

A nice touch aswell is the moment Arwen leaves with Frodo, the sheer desperation/terror in the eyes of Aragorn.

[@SilverSurfar]

Good point. But he still puts the entire fate of the world in her hands. I miss when men and women worked together eh

[@thegreenpack]

People being afraid of demons instead of thinking they are their friends....yah u right

[@mariusa.5863]

This scene is an absolute masterpiece. It’s so beautiful, frightening and dramatic it almost makes me cry. It is marred by one thing and one thing only though: Why in the world are the Nazgul running away in the direction the water goes? Get your asses back to the shore if you can’t go on towards Arwen, for god’s sake.

Strange thought was that the horses of the 9 were from Rohan, and twisted up/enslaved.

[@Knightmage_elf]

The black and white horses are so simple when it comes to good vs evil. I would put this scene second next to Ben Hur (1959) when Charlton Heston ran those white horses to victory.

Is it me, or is it so damn sexy when she says "If you want him... come and claim him." ? 🙂

[@TheDrumminMan08]

Would say it’s more badass and impressive when you consider that Arwen, a female warrior, single-handedly faced down the Ringwraiths with no fear or hesitation whatsoever. Her first response is to draw her sword, which was wielded by her father against Sauron himself in ages past.

[@aericabison23]

IMHO Tolkien should have written this scene like this- it would have shown the power of Lúthien lives on in her children- in this case, Arwen. That is perhaps the only change I would make to the book.

[@randyhudson8755]

I think they should have given the horse, the REAL hero of this scene, some mild effects, like slight trails coming off his ears and some light blue flames sparking from his hooves, and played the first half of Rush YYZ as the soundtrack. This was the horses scene, not Arwens. That Elvish horse did the heavy lifting.

[@h8GW]

[@joeyq9953]

@@JSheridanEntilZha thank you 🙏🏻

[@ejikeagba958]

I think it has something to do with the land she has crossed...I mean for her to be running all the while like she's heading for that crossing and there and then stopping to confront and challenge them, I feel, and may be wrong, I feel there's a power that land has that she could weld...that was why she was heading to that place...I feel she's crossed over to the realm of the Elves by then, and can now summon powers to her aid...cos that part of the river was actually very shallow, the ease with which she crossed it, and why the 9 initially stopped and only moved upon being challenged, I feel it has to do with what the other side where she now stood symbolized. Again, I may be wrong.🤷

[@happywheeler4268]

In the books it was Elrond and Gandalfs powers that defeated the Nazgûl. Gandalf had previously held his own against all 9 at weathertop and Elrond is known for using the elements to hide Imladris from Sauron’s forces.
