The extended version (with 48 extra minutes) of the final film in Peter Jackson's epic big screen adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy - which won all 11 Academy Awards it was nominated for, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay. Gandalf manages to rally Gondor's fallen army with the help of King Theoden of Rohan for the biggest battle in the history of Middle-earth; and Aragorn finally faces up to his responsibilities. They are obviously out-numbered but are determined to keep Sauron distracted in order to enable Frodo to complete his quest to destroy the Ring by throwing it into the fires of the Mountain of Doom.
In addition to the extended edition of the film, this collector's gift set of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King includes a bonus DVD, "Howard Shore: Creating The Lord of the Rings Symphony," which details the making of the touring symphony of the Lord of the Rings score that was performed in cities around the U.S. in 2004. It includes live concert footage (recorded in Montreal in February 2004), documentary commentary by the composer, Howard Shore, and illustrations from Lord of the Rings artists Alan Lee and John Howe. And, finally, this great collector's package includes a detailed polystone model of the city of Minas Tirith, which is featured prominently in the film. This eye-catching work from Sideshow Weta Collectibles is also a keepsake box and bookend.
