This was a hidden gem for me. I started watching this movie to learn more about the back history of Lord of The Rings. But instead I felt a personal connection with the author. The sweet rivalry he had with his friends to push each other to great heights and rebel against all hurdles. Helheimr! Oh and the fairy tale romance he is blessed with in his darkest hours. I almost felt jealous of the happy ending he gets after its mentioned several times how they were just impossible for people like us. Everything about LoTR, the darkness that led to the one ring, the loss of men to power, the journeys one must take to "prove ourselves" and the friendships that binds us to our loved ones, you will see in this movie. For everyone seeking their Edith and their happy endings, may be this one is for you.
