Changes: Forbidden Pool

Revision as of 06:40, 3 February 2020

"Far below them they saw the white waters pour into a foaming bowl, and then swirl darkly about a deep oval basin in the rocks, until they found their way out again through a narrow gate, and flowed away, fuming and chattering, into calmer and more level reaches."

—The Two Towers, Ch. VI: "The Forbidden Pool"

The Forbidden Pool was a basin of water created by the waterfall that concealed one of the two entrances into the hiding place of the rangers of Ithilien.^[1]

History

The rangers of Henneth Annûn fiercely protected the secrecy of their refuge. Anyone who came to the place unbidden was to be killed, and this pool was deemed one of the boundaries. Gollum, searching for fish, chanced to find the pool by accident, but was spared death thanks to his master, Frodo Baggins.^[2]

Portrayal in adaptations

The pool appears in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers in much the same extent as it does in J.R.R. Tolkien's works.

It was revealed in the appendices of the film that the water used for the pool reacted with the acrylic paints on the bottom, forcing the filmmakers to use chemicals to reduce foaming.
