The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - Extended Edition
This Special Extended Edition is a unique version of the film. With no constraints on the running time, director Peter Jackson added more character development, more humour, more story, more of J.R.R. Tolkien's world. But rather than simply inserting deleted scenes, Jackson and the editor, John Gilbert, carefully evaluated material to be integrated into the film, and then worked to bring each scene up to the same polish as the rest of the feature - visual effects were completed, dialogue was recorded, sound effects were created. In addition, Howard Shore composed and recorded new score with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. The result is an opportunity for fans of the book to see a cherished world brought to life in even greater detail, and for those new to the legend, to gain a deeper appreciation of its wonders.
