Digital Effects Artist of the Year Jim Rygiel |

Movie of the Year Barrie M. Osborne Peter Jackson Fran Walsh Tim Sanders THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING taps the magical forces of American film to bring life to J.R.R. Tolkien's rich literary legacy. Never losing sight of the "human" elements of this first book in his trilogy, the scope of the film sets the standard by which future motion picture epics should be judged. |
