I mean, it's easier written down on paper than seen on screen.

Hey IP!
I was wondering the same thing not too long ago.

Easy. Have a guy take her place until the moment when the flying black thingummy flys onto the horse and then have the actress run or ride into the scene. Or use a voice deepener and then hid the tell tales and you've got it.

Mort buddy! Nice to see you here!
Are you really sure you want to. Maybe it is just that I have read it so many times and known it so long I don't really think it's a problem. My recollection from my first reading is that I at least suspected the Dernhelm was Eowyn in my first reading. The description of Him/ner and his/her comment "If you do not then it is for the best." seemed a pretty clear indication. It is somewhat like the other Riders choosing to ignore Merry when they knew he was there and was not supposed to be.

Is she's a good enough actor, she might pull it off, I expect for the Dernhelm scenes the writers would have put in a couple of clues for the observant non-Tolkien fans to guess about. As for her appearance, just wrap her up in armour and nobody will know the difference (Except us fans). Who needs special effects eh?

My thoughts exactly, Comic Book Guy.
