Arwen was added quite late. JRRT was thinking of the whole story of his legendarium, not just LOTR, and wanted to re-unite the lines of Luthien (and echo the Beren Luthien story, but with a sadder ending).

Film Denethor was an abominable slob. In the book he wore armour under his shirt to punish himself. Faramir isn't as bad, but in the book he was never tempted by the Ring and if he had been he'd have kept it.
