Lord of the Rings (I): The Fellowship of the Ring, The
PG-13 | 2001 | Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen
Sprawling, majestic epic based on the first of J.R.R. Tolkien's best-selling novels introduces Frodo Baggins and the other hobbits as they leave the Shire and begin their quest to destroy the ring of power. Along the way, they are helped by men, elves, and dwarves, and hunted by all manner of evil beasts.
Marcellino : Bread and Wine
G | 2001 | Didier Benureau, Sergio Bini Bustric, Alberto Cracco, Fernando Fernan Gomez
In this Italian remake of the 1955 film of the
same name, a baby is abandoned on the steps of a 16th century monastery
during wartime. The friars raise the boy, whom they name Marcellino,
until he is 6, at which time he is taken in by a wealthy Count and his
wife. Marcellino is lonely there, and when the Count takes him on his
first hunt, the violence causes the boy to run back to the monastery.
A tick on the bottom right corner indicates a superior work -- although this is obviously a matter of taste. To give another quality benchmark for films, we have surveyed some leading critics and recorded their views, on a scale of 1 (poor) to 10 (outstanding).
