About J.R.R. Tolkien: Origins of Middle-Earth
Peter Jackson, Jude Fisher, Philippa Boyens, a few Tolkien experts (such as Tom Shippey), and others tell the narrative of J.R.R. Tolkien's friendship with C.S. Lewis, their experience in World War I, Tolkien's inspirations from the war, the creative process and composition of The Lord of the Rings, its impact and reception when published, conflicting worldviews represented in The Two Towers, and the relationship between Frodo and Sam.
Directed by Michael Pellerin, J.R.R. Tolkien: Origins of Middle-Earth leans on a strong ensemble — Brian Sibley, Colin Duriez, Rayner Unwin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2003.
