  The Lord of the Films
By J.W. Braun

First popularized in Tolkien's classic and bestselling book series, The Lord of the Rings has garnered millions of fans around the world. The stunning film trilogy by Peter Jackson was groundbreaking, beautiful, and, as expected, hugely successful.

The Lord of the Films is a unique guide to those films, in which every scene in each movie is tackled on four different fronts: a closer look at the plot and the action, a look behind the scenes, a reveal of mistakes that slipped through, and audiences' reactions. In addition to the famous live-action trilogy, other related films (such as the animated adaptations) are covered as well. Get your copy to find out:
  • Which two actors, both last-minute replacements for their parts, were thrown together and formed a lifelong bond as a result
  • Which scene was written into the script after a fan wrote a letter to the filmmakers, explaining that it was Tolkien's best writing
  • What piece of music from The Fellowship of the Ring was edited directly into The Two Towers score
  • Which actors in these films were big fans of Tolkien when they auditioned, and which actors had never read The Lord of the Rings before joining the project

It's all here, along with over 70 exclusive illustrations and photographs, interviews, and games and puzzles. After reading this book, you'll be ready to watch The Lord of the Rings for the first time all over again!

"Braun has somehow managed to capture every little additional detail you could ask for from The Lord of the Rings
films every step of the way. The book is wonderful... for fans of the films looking for more LotR content... or as
a companion guide while the movies play on the television." - René S. Garcia Jr., Buzzine
