When she said "I am no man" everyone in the theater went crazy.

[MrFrostien]

And this is how you portrait a strong female character

[Alienkiwi]

This is the female hero we need in movies today. She's knows her odds, she's terrified, and she certainly isn't as physically strong as the Witch King. But through love and sheer bravery, she took him on, knowing she would probably die

[graceh.]

I love how real this fight choreography is, and how she survives on her sheer INNER strength. She clumsily dodges, she's not necessarily big enough to wield the armor and weapons she has elegantly, she doesn't have any real experience in the battlefield, and most physical force can knock her back pretty far. Yet, she NEVER once drops eye contact from the Witch King despite her sheer terror, and that is what courage is. Looking it in the eye, whatever "it" is, despite everything in you saying to run. Her final blow is a messy yet adrenaline-fueled, beautiful act of defiance that also betrays prophecy. This is such a dope scene.

The one time "slay queen" was taken literally.

[LisaG]

One thing the movies didn’t convey was the bowel watering absolute terror the Nazgûl could induce in the bravest man. Reduce him to a gibbering, cowering wreck just by proximity. For Eowin and Merry to actually stand in his presence let alone attack him was the most courageous moment in the 3 books imo.

[bbg]

Considering Lord of the Rings was written during the 1940s, and still comes strong with well written female characters, is absolutely insane to me. Thank you J. R. R Tolkien 🫶

The saddest part is (in the book) Theoden King dies not knowing that Éowin saved him. It's so sad. I'm glad in the movie they can say goodbye to each other. Miranda did an amazing job. I always cry in that scene "I know your face... Éowyn".

[hanshotfirst]

I still remember seeing this opening weekend. The whole cinema stood up and cheered.

[CLBOO]

She stood against the Witch King because she wanted to protect someone she loved so dearly not because she wanted to prove she’s a powerful lady boss.

[johnherlihy]

This is one of the best scenes in the Lord of the Rings!

[redvienna]

saw a dude on twitter complaining that this scene was "woke", even though it's literally in the book which came out in the 1950s. really grim stuff, man

[kay-dc]

The soundtrack on this series is absolutely remarkable

[NagiSeishiro]

The Witch king had a horrible day. Ran into the only woman on the battlefield lol😆😆😆

[SJMJ]

One of the most satisfying moments in cinema history.

[CatholicK]

This scene is so elegant. It shows that those who are often perceived by the strong as weaker can help in such surprising ways when given a chance - yet without pretention or pandering, and without insulting the physically strong. It also portrays beautifully how complete arrogance is the eventual downfall of even those who consider themselves invincible.

[oculosprudentium]

And just like that, she made history as the only person to both kill a Nazgul and the Witch King leading the enemy.
Her ancestors looking on in the afterlife were VERY pleased!!

[orelas]

The faceoff was even better in the book, but this scene did a great job to convey the thrill of seeing the wyvern slain, and the dread of the combat.

[Vulpine]

Eowyn: "I am no man."
Witch King of Angmar: "Oh $#!%"

_”No man can kill me.”_ But a hobbit and a woman can!
