"Vig used to call me 'Elf boy', and I'd call him 'filthy human'. As an Elf, I never got a scratch on me, never got dirty. And Vig would come out with blood and sweat all over him. And he'd say to me, 'Oh, go manicure your nails.'"

This quote by Orlando Bloom talks to the relationship in between him and his co-star Viggo Mortensen on the set of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Blossom's character, an Elf, was never ever seen with a scratch or dirt on him, while Mortensen's character was frequently covered in blood and sweat. This difference in their characters was shown in the labels they offered each other, with Bloom being called "Elf boy" and Mortensen being called "unclean human". The quote also talks to the appreciation Bloom had for Mortensen's dedication to his character, as he wanted to go the extra mile to make his character as reasonable as possible. Flower's comment about manicuring his nails is a funny method of expressing his adoration for Mortensen's commitment to his craft.
