Product Description

Product Description

How do ordinary people find the strength within themselves to change the course of the future? What inspires a reluctant hero to become a courageous leader? Profound questions like these are the basis of The Return of the King. History has known many great leaders, and now, National Geographic delves beyond the film to provide a historical context for Aragorn's struggles. Through exclusive film footage and powerful interviews, surprising connections come to life between our world and The Lord of the Rings, helping us to better understand both.

2.0 out of 5 stars For Diehard LOTR fans only Aug 2 2009
By William A. Stonier
Format:DVD
I purchased this video for a diehard Lord of the Rings fan to add to their collection. As it is, it has very little new information about Lord of the Rings or JRR Tolkien that has not already been seen in the dvd collections of the movies. John Rhys Davies [Gimli the Dwarf] narrates the video which I would call a fluff piece. Possibly a good starting point if you know nothing of the movie Return of the King but otherwise it would only be something a diehard collector of LOTR memorabilia would want to have.

1.0 out of 5 stars Based on Jackson not Tolkien! July 8 2004
By B. Austin
Format:DVD
Let me start by saying that I loved the movies. But this commentary uses supposed Tolkien experts that have never read the books! In the movie Aragorn is a reluctant hero. In the actual novel Aragorn has been preparing his entire life to claim, not reclaim, the throne of Gondor. That is a huge discrepancy between the movies and the novel. I am surprised that the "experts" did not notice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Return of the King July 5 2004
By A Customer
Format:DVD
This was an excellent movie. It won 11 academy awards. It ties for most awards ever with Titanic and Ben hur. The friendship between Sam and Frodo is amazing. Viggo looks gorgeous (as usual).It is a mastepiece that will stand the test of time.
