Computers and wizardry have been
constant companions during the last
quarter of the Twentieth Century. And
after numerous break-through films
that seamlessly blended live action
and computer animation, a project like
The Lord of the Rings was possible.
Peter Jackson had a vision which took
the filmmakers to his native New
Zealand. Through some strange twist in
movie making logic, all three books of
the Trilogy were filmed in one, long
shoot.
Boromer, the son of the Steward of
Gondor, sees the answer to the problem
of Evil in the Ring itself. But the
Ring is the artifact of Evil. How can
Evil destroy Evil?

It is true. The Machines of Evil
cannot be turned for Good. Contrary to
current political notions, death and
destruction will not eradicate Evil,
for the Evil of destruction remains.
Those who do not study history are
bound to be really stupid.
Even the determined Ring Bearer is not
free. Following him is Golem, a
tortured and pathetic creature, who
wants nothing more than to have back
his "Precious."

"The Fellowship of the Ring," the
first movie of the trilogy, grossed
enough to cover the enormous costs of
the whole project. The second film,
"The Two Towers," surpasses the first
in story and income.
The screen writers took liberties,
adding cinematic characterization and
removing portions of the story that
did not contribute to the plot. Even
so, they keep the charm and darkness
intact, taking millions of people to
see Middle Earth -- many for the first
time.
