'The Fellowship of the Ring': The Smallest of Things (Film as Text)

Katherine Nash and Garry Gillard look at historical and biographical approaches which could have been taken by Peter Jackson when making his films based on J.R.R. Tolkien's 'Lord of the Rings' books. They discuss the text's ideological representations of evil, make comparisons with the 'Stars Wars' trilogy and analyse the individual roles of characraters.
