He referenced being Samwise Gamgee from LOTR which got a loud cheer from the crowd. Of the the people that spoke at the rally (pre-Kerry and Edwards) Astin delivered the most articulate and heart-felt speech of the group. I was thrilled. (SPECIAL NOTE: TORN in no way endorses or condemns the political views of candidates or cast members supporting candidates. We just report.)

I just posted a story about the Rudy Foundation Celebrity dinner from February 11th. Jessica Peace had a chance to attend the event and met Sean Astin (Sam), and she was kind enough to let me post her story and her pics at my site. LOTR is mentioned and there’s a bit more about it in the Q&A with Jessica. There’s also a pic of Sean with Ali Astin. I though you guys might find this stuff interesting. [More]
