Faramir's hair colour
Did anyone notice that David Wenham who plays Faramir in TTT has the wrong hair colour?
In RotK - The Steward and the King, you can read that Faramir's hair is black as a raven, and in all art made by the famous Tolkien concept artists you can see his black hair. It's strange that the movie makers missed that. All the other characters have been compared to the existing art. Look at Gandalf for example, he looks just like he does in a painting by John Howe: http://inkpot.com/classical/images/gandalf.jpg The movie makers even had the concept artists Alan Lee and John Howe working for them. Couldn't they say "Hey, you must do something about Wenham's hair"? Otherwize, I think that Wenham preformed very well, even though Faramir was a little more evil in the movie than in the books.

Welcome to Entmoot, Jonathan! I'm going to close this thread and have you post about this in the Two Towers mistakes thread. Or if you prefer, we have a few threads discussing movie Faramir where this could be discussed (just do a search and you'll find one). Thanks, and enjoy yourself!
