Title: probably the finest fantasy film ever made
Review: I was almost in tears in the theatre at the sheer, incredible beauty of this film and how well it adapted (it is *not* a completely literal translation to the screen, but that is not possible) the epic and mythic novels of Tolkien to the screen. I cried when Gandolf sacrificed himself and fell into Shadow. My significant other fell asleep. (Not a gender thing per se, most of the males in the audience were as enthralled as I.) I bought a copy and have watched it several times now -- by myself. Keep differences in psychology in mind if you want to buy this as a gift for the hard-nosed "realist" in your life.
