Beyond the Movie : Lord of the Rings

National Geographic embarks on an extraordinary journey through myth, legend, language, and history to explore how the imaginary world of Middle-earth reflects our own.
- Who was J.R.R. Tolkien, and how did he create the amazing world of Middle-earth?
- How does the struggle between good and evil in this epic story parallel challenges in our world?
- Why are the places, heroes, and villains of Middle-earth eerily familiar?
- Who are the real-life Frodos today?
Only National Geographic can present such a unique look into the blockbuster film and the real-life story behind it.
