THE LORD OF THE RINGS

 My favourite book and film, I am passionate about this wonderful novel.

It was written by the Britain and philologist writer J.R.R. TOLKIEN. Although this novel was a continuity of his previous novel “The hobbit”, it got more success.

“The Lord of the Rings” was written during The First World War when he fell ill. It was not until 1955 when it was published for first time in the United kingdom.

The gender is epic fantasy in which different races of being such as hobbits, elves, dwarves, orcs, wizards and men coexist.

The story treats about the hard adventure which a group of friends have to face to in order to destroy the magic ring and this way defeat to the Dark Lord Sauron.

In 1999, the new Zealander film director Peter Jackson, started to make the shooting of the film, and it finished in 2000. After four years, one of the most successful films in the history, counted with three differents parts: “The Fellowship of the Ring”, “The two Towers” and “The Return of the King”.

In the ceremony of The Oscars, between the three parts got 27 of the 30 possible golden statuette.

Jackson made possible a project in which Tolkien world revived and its actors were consolidates on the big screen:

Viggo Mortensen    _ Aragorn      Orlando Bloom   _ Légolas

Eliah Wood            _ Frodo           Cate Blanchett   _ Galadriel

Ian Mckellen         _ Gandalf       and many more…

Anyway, obviously not everyone like this film. However, this one is especial for me due to the fact that it makes feelings grow inside me up, I have cried, I have laughed, I have felt intrigue and I could not say how many times I have watched it cause, I will never be tired of turning the DVD on, sitting on my sofa and let all those good feelings flourish.
