LOTR Fans...Is This Your ''King''?

PABAAH: Patriotic Americans Boycotting Anti-American Hollywood ^

My wife has developed the policy of trying to stay ignorant of the personal lives of artists whose work she enjoys, so that enjoyment won't be spoiled.

It's good that there are some few, like JRD, who are exceptions.

It's a pity there's such a disconnect with the others, so often. By all accounts I've heard and read, Mortensen is an actor's actor, in the sense that he's a hard worker, personally utterly dedicated and yet very much a team player. These are conservative qualities. LOTR is a conservative story, very much raising good over evil, and individual freedom/responsibility over totalitarian control. Shame that some who have so much to do with bring that story to life on the screen Just Don't Get It.

BTW, we're doing the Trilogy Tuesday bit. If you have any experienced pointers on how to survive sitting that long, they'd be welcome.
