24. O derradeiro sacrifício
Não é fácil escolher uma cena desta trilogia - a do Senhor dos Anéis - que já ficou, de forma merecida, para a história do cinema. Escolhi o prelúdio do fim (Return of the King (2003) - Peter Jackson) quando Frodo (Elijah Wood) e Sam (Sean Astin), exaustos, escalam o "Mount Doom", em direcção à fornalha que criou e podia destruir o anel. O diálogo e a imagem dizem tudo sobre este derradeiro sacrifício.
Sam: Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll be spring soon. And the orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel thicket. And they'll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields... and eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the taste of strawberries?
Frodo: No, Sam. I can't recall the taste of food... nor the sound of water... nor the touch of grass. I'm... naked in the dark, with nothing, no veil... between me... and the wheel of fire! I can see him... with my waking eyes!
Sam: Then let us be rid of it... once and for all! Come on, Mr. Frodo. I can't carry it for you... but I can carry you!
