Peter Jackson’s adaptation of The Lord of the Rings remained largely faithful to J.R.R. Tolkien’s seminal fantasy work. However, some characters — like the superpowerful Tom Bombadil and the resurrected Elf Glorfindel — didn’t receive their due. Still, while most fans were pleased with the film trilogy, there was one scene in The Fellowship of the Rings where some didn’t care for Jackson’s interpretation: the interaction between Galadriel and Frodo in Lothlorien.During their meeting, Galadriel considered accepting the One Ring when Frodo offered it to her. Then, suddenly, she was changed into a terrifying “dark form” that could easily conquer Middle-earth with the Ring’s power. Understandably, the sequence may confuse some fans. Yet, Jackson’s dark depiction of Galadriel — as “beautiful and terrible as the dawn!” — makes sense from a certain perspective, despite the moment straying slightly from the novel.There is a difference between the movie’s and novel’s accounts of Galadriel, as with many aspects of The Lord of the Rings’ tale. Tolkien’s scene takes place in The Fellowship of the Rings’ chapter, “The Mirror of Galadriel.” Jackson adapts that scene almost verbatim, but he took liberty with one word. Tolkien wrote that Galadriel “stood before Frodo seeming now tall beyond measurement, and beautiful beyond enduring, terrible and worshipful.”
