Twenty years ago, the epic adventure of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings concluded on the big screen with the epic The Return of the King. Now, for one week, movie fans can once again experience the battle for Middle Earth on the big screen as The Return of the King extended edition gets a special 20th anniversary re-release in movie theaters.
In the Best Picture-winning conclusion to The Lord of the Rings, armies amass for a final battle that will decide the fate of the world and one member of the Fellowship of the Ring is revealed as the noble heir to the throne of the Kings of Men. Yet, the sole hope for triumph over evil lies with a brave hobbit, Frodo, who, accompanied only by his loyal friend Sam and the hideous, wretched Gollum, ventures deep into the very dark heart of Mordor on his seemingly impossible quest to destroy the Ring of Power.
