One of many great scenes in LOTR. If you have no idea what is happening here; Gandalf and the Hobbit Pippin, against the will of the Regent of Gondor light the signal fires, calling on The Riders of Rohan to come to the aid of Gondor. Love the line at the end “Now is the hour. Riders of Rohan, oaths you have taken, fulfill them now to Lord and Land”

I have always marveled at the depiction of this system of communication, how great a job it would be to guard one of those outpost: just waiting, waiting, eat lunch, have a cigarette, keep waiting, waiting, until one day you get to light the whole thing up cuz’ something important is happening.
