This year marks the 20th anniversary of Peter Jackson’s “The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King”, based on the 3rd book of Tolkien’s fantasy epic. I consider it the greatest film ever, and have seen it 60 times. In tribute, I collated these quotes and pics from the film.
Nothing comes close to the sheer scale of this magnificently powerful epic. It shares the achievement with Titanic, as the only films to have won both 11 Oscars and earnt over $1billion at the box office.
The Lord of the Rings is the ultimate hero’s journey for Frodo, and the powerful and corrupting Ring is the ultimate movie MacGuffin. In Return of the King, Jackson sustains emotions until all threads are tied.
