Paper Summary:

A look at the interpersonal relationship as shown in the friendship between Frodo and Sam in Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings." Examines the book version compared to the movie version.

From the Paper:

"The 2002-2004 Lord of the Rings trilogy has multiple instances of communication between characters. The movies were adapted from the books of the same name written by J.R.R. Tolkien. Elijah Woods plays the main character Frodo who is on a mission to save his shire and everyone in the known world from being destroyed. Sam is Frodo's best friend who ends up going along on this adventure. Their friendship takes many tolls along the way helping to illustrate many concepts of interpersonal communication: proxemics, empathy, complementary and parallel relationships, verbal aggression and win-win problem solving."
