Hooray for Gimli!

Via Andrew Sullivan, this interview with John Rhys-Davis who plays Gimli the dwarf in the LOTR films, and does the voice of Treebeard, shows that he understands why we must fight. Viggo Mortensen must be a better actor, though, because he's a moron when he's not acting. I don't know how someone could play that role and say the lines and not be touched or moved to serious thought by them, but Viggo has done it.
