LOTR: The Two Towers Question (Open Spoilers)

At the end of TTT, why did Faramir say “At last, we understand one another, Frodo”. Okay, I get that he figured the ring was bad and needed to be destroyed. And Frodo must do it, without any help from his soldiers. How he got that watching Frodo nearly give the ring to the Nazgul isn’t explained. But that’s not really my question.

Why does he think Frodo understands him? What insight did Frodo see about how Faramir needed to impress his Dad?

Since its a movie bit only, I can only guess - my thought would be that he is saying “we both have tremendous burdens put on us” - its not so much that Frodo understands him, but more that they are kindred spirits.
