From the Paper:

"How did the new blockbuster movie "The Fellowship of the Ring" come about? How was it made? I intend to answer these questions to educate all those people about the film and its backgrounds and makings. The background underlying this story is very extensive and so I cannot cover all of it, however, I will cover the author of the original story, the making of the film, and the actors and their feelings about the story. This new movie has much more foundation to it than simply the film itself, it has many references to the original novel in the film and has a solid base in the images that the author, J.R.R. Tolkien, had originally painted with words."
