Movie Bio:

Gimli son of Gloin is the only dwarf to volunteer in escorting Frodo the Ringbearer to Mordor. His former contempt towards elves evaporated when he saw Galadriel with his own eyes. In the gift-giving, he requested three strands of the lady's hair, an unusual and precious gift for him.

After Frodo left for Mordor alone with Sam, Gimli joined Aragorn and Legolas, now his best friend, in the search for the hobbits Merriadoc and Peregrin. They crossed paths with the Rohirrim and participated in the Battle of Helm's Deep.

Their journey still continues.

Movie Quotes:

* Aarrgghhh! Let them come! There is one dwarf yet in Moria who still draws breath!

* I have taken my worst wound at this parting, having looked my last upon that which is fairest. Haugh, henceforth I will call nothing fair unless it be her gift to me.
* What was it?
* I asked her for one hair from her golden head. She gave me three.

* Legolas, two already!
* I’m on seventeen!
* Argh! I’ll have no pointy-ear outscoring me!
