Pippin's song (Edge of Night)/Faramir's charge [4K Ultra HD Remastered]| LotR-The Return of the King

🍅🍅🍅
Home is behind the world ahead
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadow to the edge of night
Until the stars are all alight

Mist and shadow
Cloud and shade
All shall fade
All shall fade

Pippin: We have no songs for great halls and evil times

Also Pippin: Continues to sing the perfect song for great halls and for really evil times

[patrickkanas]

That final cut to Denthor eating after the arrows. To say their blood is on his hands is an understatement. He may as well be eating them himself

[dannymuggleton]

I know it’s obvious but the imagery of tomato juice running down his chin as the soldiers fall is hitting. Billy Boyd nailed the song

[georges]

2:48 You know things are completely mad and desperate when even Gandalf, this powerful Maiar and a symbol of wisdom and courage for most people in Middle-Earth, is just sitting in the courtyard alone, looking lost and defeated.

Also, if this scene was a painting in some gallery, I wouldn't question it. Such outstanding and beautiful cinematography.

[ShadowDemon]

Peter Jackson is a genius. The way this scene plays out is just amazing and filled with so much emotion. I love how when pippin starts to sing you just hear the galloping of the horses, and then the strings start to come in as the riders get closer to their death. I also love that the white orc clearly screams “FIRE!” but it’s silenced which makes the sound of the arrows flying so much more impactful. I just finished the whole extended trilogy for like the 30th time with my dad and when this part came on I started bawling my eyes out just from how emotional and beautiful it was. I will say this until I die, The Lord of the Rings is and will always be the greatest story ever written and Peter Jackson brought it to life. Best movies ever made

Two interesting facts about this scene:

1) That's actually Billy Boyd, Pippin's actor, who is singing. It's not a voice double, but he himself. He's not just an actor but quite a competent singer as well.

2) The orchestral music that starts playing in the middle of the song is slightly dissonant with the melody of the song. This was completely intentional by Howard Shore, to make the scene more unnerving and sad, even creepy.

[FlavourlessLife]

For anyone who hasn't read the books, the significance of Denethor eating in front of Pippin is that Guards in Gondor were served their first meal of the day at lunch time. Pippin found waiting this long to eat particularly difficult, because Hobbits like to eat 7 meals per day (3 of which come before lunch time).

Men don't cry... unless they watch this

[Slim_Nady]

If listening to this doesn’t give you goosebumps idk what will

[xpendabull]

That wide shot of Gandalf at the end is like a Renaissance painting. Another small perfect moment in a perfect film

[VirtualMilk]

He may be stupid for touching the Sauron eyeball orb but HIS ANGELIC VOICE OH MY GOD.

[pharkurnell]

As a grown ass man, I will never be ashamed to say I cried during this masterpiece.

[RudiW]

I will never forget watching this scene in theatre, with my father. This scene is what I remember best. The theatre was fully packed with people. Not a single empty seat. And that silence that fell over us, when he started to sing was quite something else. Everyone at the same time fell for the illusion. And that was simply the best thing for me about the entire experience.

[tanyapicou]

Ok, I'll watch Lord of the Rings again

[PageNumberx]

billy boyd has an absolutely amazing voice! i was so happy that the last song in the hobbit, "the last goodbye", was his. <3 very touching end of an era.

[spoongeyboob]

1:50 in the theater (my parents got us tickets to see it opening night, which had to be bought 6 months in advance), people whistled and cheered at this note. When he finished singing people started to clap and cheer but quickly silenced once Pippin broke down in tears.

This is a very underrated scene. No one was expecting such a beautiful singing voice from Billy, and that surprise coupled with the gut punch of watching Faramir gallop towards death while his father couldn't give a damn and seeing Pippin cry was so powerful

[imbored]

One of my fav scenes in the entire trilogy

[TheLaura]

His voice, the "to the edge of night", the sound design, the music in the end when we see Gandalf – this scene is absolute perfection! Goosebumps every year when I watch those wonderful movies during christmas time ❤

[onizuka]

I bet, if premier want to show this movies again with 4K resolution billions people still want to watch it

[dwightalexander]

Even the orc's faces looks confused and sorry for faramir and his men marching towards their death
