Part 4/11:
Another notable character missing from the films is Glorfindel, a powerful elf with a vital role in Tolkien's work, especially during the First Age. In the original story, it is Glorfindel who aids Aragorn in rescuing Frodo after he is wounded by a Morgul blade. Sent by Elrond after receiving reports of the Nazgûl's approach, Glorfindel discovers Frodo's group and assists them on their journey to Rivendell.
