The
LOTR II…
Opening
with the recollection of Gandalf’s fall in Moria, Peter Jackson’s
spectacular sequel to the Oscar-winning Fellowship of the
Ring carries on with the story of the hobbits’ quest into
Mordor, seemingly hopeless despite their heroism… Aragorn
and his companions are faced with a new peril: the treason
of Isengard and Saruman’s planned assault on Rohan, the free
land of the Horselords… A skillful combination of large-scale
battle and siege scenes with romance and true Elvish magic,
the film is an outstanding masterpiece of the modern fantasy
genre. Complemented with the superb acting of the ever-charismatic
hobbit Elijah Wood and the beautiful Elf-princess Liv Tyler,
the film is a magnificent yet at times intensely frightening
experience.
* The links in
the left column on the table are represented by links to different
resources which contain the most up-to-date and detailed information
about the actors starring in the LoTR. I have browsed the
Web and various Tolkien-related resources to make a list of
the links; most of them will direct you to either a particular
official (unofficial) movie site, a fan network, an occasional
collection of images and, in several cases, to the film databases
of www.theonering.net,
www.lordoftherings.net
and www.tlotr.net, as well
as some others. In some cases, however, I thought the available
information not sufficient, and the few unlinked actor names
will be supplied with respective resource links in the nearest
future
