Viggo Mortensen

Here I am! Sorry, so late...but this is a basic summary of the movie: (and it does have to do with horses...;))

Western and Action/Adventure
Based on the true story of the greatest long-distance horse race ever run, “Hidalgo” is an epic action-adventure and one man’s journey of personal redemption. Held yearly for centuries, the Ocean of Fire — a 3,000 mile survival race across the Arabian Desert — was a challenge restricted to the finest Arabian horses ever bred, the purest and noblest lines, owned by the greatest royal families. In 1890, a wealthy Sheik invited an American and his horse to enter the race for the first time. Frank T. Hopkins (Viggo Mortensen) was a cowboy and dispatch rider for the US cavalry who had once been billed as the greatest rider the West had ever known. The Sheik (Omar Sharif) would put this claim to the test, pitting the American cowboy and his mustang, Hidalgo, against the world’s greatest Arabian horses and Bedouin riders—some of whom were determined to prevent the foreigner from finishing the race. For Frank, the Ocean of Fire becomes not only a matter of pride and honor, but a race for his very survival as he and his horse, Hidalgo, attempt the impossible.
 
Did you vote that Aragorn would be on the first teaser poster at TORn? I did it wasn't a that big of a suprise, but it is amazing!!! I think he gets Andruil from Ellanden and Ellrohir even though it's looking like Arwen, what do you think?
 
Oh, good, I was getting a bit worried! I'm so out of it lately, it is kind of scaring me. I haven't felt especially well, and I'm losing a ton of hair!!! :(
 
No, hopefully just stress and that's it!

Good, I'll go and check out the poll tomorrow, it will be something to help me get through tomorrow. Today's poster was the "LOTR EVENT OF THE DAY". What was yours?
