The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring

The first instalment of Peter Jackson's adaptation of JRR Tolkien's classic fantasy adventure sets the majestic tone for the trilogy. Elijah Wood stars as Frodo Baggins, the lowly hobbit who is enlisted by the great wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen) to undertake an epic quest to save Middle-earth from the ever-growing forces of darkness. It's a mighty tale of myths and magic, greed and deception, courage and conviction, men and monsters, elves and dwarves... and the one ring that rules them all. The movie picked up Oscars for visual effects, make-up, score and cinematography.
