Don't let people miss on a great quote from the "Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" movie - add it here! Add a Quote. Our favorite collection of Famous Movies ». Gus Van Sant - John G. Avildsen - Instead, he touches the envelope containing the Ring, then uses tongs to remove it from the flames and place it directly into Frodo's hand. In the original books, however, it is Frodo who puts the ring in the envelope and Gandalf does touch the ring, at least twice in the process of examining it.
Another temporary Ring-bearer in Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings trilogy is the mysterious Tom Bombadil, although he holds onto the item longer than Gandalf.
Frodo openly tells Tom about his quest and even lets him play with the Ring. Much to Frodo's surprise, the Ring means nothing to Bombadil. There's no enticement on Tom's part, no power or gravity, and Frodo's enigmatic host even puts the Ring on without disappearing, happily handing it back without a struggle. Tolkien never reveals the true nature of Tom Bombadil in The Lord of the Rings , so it's impossible to say exactly how he resists the Ring so effortlessly, but the working theory is that Tom possessed full mastery of his forest realm, meaning that as long as the Ring remained within his borders, it was no more threatening than a regular piece of jewelry.
The final of the three temporary Ring-bearers during Frodo's reign is his closest friend, Samwise Gamgee , who has a far more in-depth Ring experience than Gandalf or Tom Bombadil. The humble Samwise does remarkably well to resist the power of the Ring while travelling with Frodo, but is forced to carry the burden when the official Ring-bearer of the Fellowship is incapacitated by Shelob and taken by orcs. Even during his short time possessing the Ring, Sam continues to brush off its influence, and after Frodo is rescued, is happy to hand it back without a fuss.
Throughout The Lord of the Rings , only Tom Bombadil is more successful in denying the Ring's will, which perfectly demonstrates Sam's unerring inner strength.

I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? The orcs stood still, and a dead silence fell. You cannot pass.
