Philosophy In Film - 091 - The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

Embark on an epic journey with the gang as we delve into Peter
Jackson’s cinematic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings: The
Fellowship of the Ring. With the fate of Middle-earth resting on
a perilous quest, the crew unites to explore the deep lore,
unforgettable characters, and weighty themes that set this
legendary saga in motion. Taking his farthest step outside the
Shire, Craig sets us on the path with Producer’s Notes (7:16),
Alain braves the mines of the Beauclair Synopsis (23:26), and
Chris embarks on a quest to unravel the secrets in the
Philosopher's Corner (57:36). The council gathers for the Round
Table (1:06:13), as the gang breaks down the film’s enduring
magic while evading the dark powers that seek them. We take up
arms to answer the call of Reviews (1:45:52), before delving too
deep and greedily to open up the #Mailbag (1:54:36). Together, we
embark on an adventure filled with friendship, courage, and the
timeless fight against the forces of darkness. As always, we cast
our gaze into the fires of Mount Doom, uncovering the
philosophical and non-philosophical treasures forged within.
