The Lord of the Rings: The Making of the Movie Trilogy is the definitive behind-the-scenes account of the creation of an epic film trilogy. Hailed by critics worldwide, part one of the trilogy has been one of the most successful films of the decade, breaking box-office records around the world and receiving four Golden Globe, eleven BAFTA and thirteen Academy Award nominations. Lavishly illustrated with more than 300 photos from all three films, many unique to this book, together with exclusive interview with all the principle cast and crew, Brian Sibley's fascinating book takes the reader inside the process of adapting J.R.R. Tolkien's masterwork for the screen. The Lord of the Rings: The Making of the Movie Trilogy
reveals in words and pictures exactly how the magic was made: from the
direction, scripting and acting, to creating the sets, landscapes,
makeup, wardrobe, miniatures, music and special effects. Written in an
entertaining and informal style, the in-depth text recounts the personal
stories of the hundreds of talented artists, craftsmen and women, cast
and crew members who worked for years - adding detail and authenticity
at every stage - to bring one of the greatest stories ever told to
glorious cinematic life. |
