The Council of Elrond was changed quite a bit from the book, where it is much more a debriefing of several characters about the current state of affairs, and a regrouping moment from where Frodo proceeds with his quest (as in the book, he has already decided to take the Ring to Mount Doom from the very beginning). The screenwriters changed it to a fierce debate where Frodo makes his decision, but keeping visual order in all the quarreling parties was quite a challenge. Because the scene was starting to get too long and expository, it was rewritten even during filming: Boromir's speech at the Council was read from a sheet of paper sitting on Sean Bean's lap, as it was only given to him the night before.
