I’m no expert on copyright, but the story of Arathorn and Gilraen is merely touched upon in Tolkien’s works. I don’t know if taking the mere concept and creating a movie about it would really violate copyright.

Saul Zaentz owns every word, period and comma of LOTR. And he’s VERY tenacious about protecting his property.
