The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

On movie theater: 19 December 2001

Story line:
The story tells about Frodo Baggins, the main character in The Lord of the Rings, who has a great obligation in his life – he has to destroy the Ring due to its dark-forced ability in resulting destruction in Frodo’s time and in the future. At first, Frodo was just a typical young Hobbit – nice, merry, loves peacefulness and quietness, likes to have parties, hospitable, and skillful in tools. He tends to have no difficulties in life. Then, after the giving of the Ring from his uncle, Bilbo Baggins, Frodo’s life changes into horrible days. He has to go miles away through the mountains, lands, and the forest (which is usually avoided by the Hobbits), meets many kinds of creatures (Men, Dwarves, Elves, Orcs), has to deal with the dark forces that after him now and then in order to seize the Ring from him, and the worst of all, he is very close to death when he has to face the dark forces by himself. There is a kind of process of finding the true personality, which is the developed-personality into a mature one of the main character, Frodo Baggins. It involves the influences from his surrounding – the interaction to other creatures that he has never met before. He has to make decisions, has to deal with many different ways of thinking that can influence his personality.
