Growing up, I have watched a lot of internationally-acclaimed movies and series. The habit of watching foreign movies is something that I find interesting and entertaining. Perhaps, it is the ability of these movies to bring their audiences into a different world that makes it even more enticing. “The Lord of the Rings” is a phenomenal hit worldwide, making it one of the top stories known in the present generation. The setting of the story, paired with the characters, brings a wide range of emotions and feelings.
