Fifteen years ago, "The Lord of the Rings 3" premiered, the author of the first year, in a friend's home for the first time to know "The Lord of the Rings", then only think that this is a hero fighting monster story, friends bought pirated discs, sound and painting is often unable to synchronize, but still see my blood veins can not stop. Fifteen years later, I'm nearing the end of my life, and every summer of those fifteen years I'm going to revisit the Lord of the Rings trilogy on my computer or on TV. A few days ago, with the help of the Shanghai International Film Festival's "good film re-appointment", I finally relived the old dream in the cinema for the first time, and at the end of the song, the field lights lit up, but I still refused to leave.
Fifteen years later, it is still the most epic film of antiquity. Its grand and sweeping narrative, the war scene of "lying down at night listening to the wind and rain, and the iron horse glacier dreaming", are all peaks that are difficult to reach in later generations.
Love and courage are the eternal themes of all hero-themed movies, and the fearlessness and sacrifice of heroes are the souls of all epics, and "The Lord of the Rings 3" interprets these to the extreme.
The two pre-war mobilizations in "The Lord of the Rings 3" are the best portrayal of courage and perseverance, as a person with a history major, whenever I see these two speeches, I will enter the drama and think of Zhang Tour, who guarded Huaiyang during the Anshi Rebellion, and Shi Kefa in Yangzhou City. The most touching courage is not that "victory will belong to us", but that it is done knowingly that it cannot be done.
The busiest person in the whole trilogy, none other than Gandalf, it was his running back and forth that made the originally scattered world of Middle-earth reunite again, he single-handedly assembled the Lord of the Rings squad, awakened King Hiyoton, recalled three thousand horsemen at the last moment of the Battle of the Sacred Helmet Valley, oversaw the battle of Gondor, and drew troops for help, which turned the tide again and again, and helped the building to fall. Whenever I see Gandalf galloping in Middle-earth, I can't help but think of the Wen Tianxiang Wen Xiang who destroyed his family to relieve difficulties and recruited soldiers to work hard, if it were not for the movie to always give a happy ending, then "the mountains and rivers are broken and the wind is fluttering, and the life is floating and raining." Fearing the beachhead said trepidation, Zero Ding Yangli sighed Zero Ding, "Why is it not Gandalf's fate?"
Minastilis was lonely and helpless before the Siege of Gandalf.
Love, friendship, family affection and other emotions are all included in the kaleidoscope of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, but in "The Lord of the Rings 3", the most careless is brotherhood. No matter how dark and sinister the front is, Meri and Pippin, Aragon and Legolas, Sam and Frodo, all accompany each other until the end of the world. Whenever I see Sam say "I can not carry it for you, but I can carry you", and then use his last strength to carry Frodo to the Doomsday Pass, I can't help but burst into tears. The first comment of Douban's "Lord of the Rings 3" is: "Even if you have drunk wine together, visited the street many times, dug into your heart many times, and spent many times together, many people still can't have a friend who can carry you from hell to heaven - Sam." ”
Excellent films, literature or not, must have its rich layers, different ages, different moods to see, can always see different things, produce different resonance. At first glance, the lord of the rings boys will probably be attracted by the war scenes, the girls are amazed by Orlando Bloom's appearance; later, you may like Aragon, like his heroism and kingly spirit; then later, you will learn to appreciate Gandalf, for his wisdom, humor and indifference; suddenly one day, I found that my favorite is actually King Hiyoton, who has made many mistakes, spoiled his courtiers, persecuted Zhongliang, killed his son, and made his people displaced, but awakened. But he was still the male lord, he always knew that there was little hope, but he still rushed to the enemy camp with hope, "and he was good in his heart, although he died nine times, he still did not regret it."

At the 76th Academy Awards in 2004, The Lord of the Rings 3 won a total of 11 awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Original Score, and Best Editing. It is worth mentioning that this is the last time that the Oscar judges have aligned with the public aesthetic, and since then, the interests and tastes of the Oscar judges have become more and more disconnected from the general public, and they have gone further and further down the road of minority and political correctness. Today, "The Lord of the Rings 3", a film with no black actors, no big heroines, and no minority care, may no longer be favored by the Oscar judges. In this sense, the "Lord of the Rings Trilogy" is also like an ancient epic of a nation, a song of praise for love and courage, which has a concise and clear view of good and evil, but in the process of modernization, it has changed from a history of faith to a legend, the divinity of the protagonist has been stripped away, the simple and beautiful qualities have begun to fade, and in this secular, fragmented, cultural relativism is rampant and increasingly resistant to grand narratives, it has become an irreproducible song.
