From child star to Frodo Baggins to cool adult actor, Elijah Wood went a long way and sometimes we didn't even notice it. How did we miss so much?

Most of us remember Elijah Wood as Frodo Baggins who had eyes so exquisite that one may forget the complete story of Lord Of The Rings but it’s almost impossible to cease to think of those magnificent blue eyes. He made his film debut with a minor role in Back to the Future Part II. The actor is now concentrating on his music career.
