Выдержка из
предисловия:
Courtesy of The Lord of the Rings trilogy, movie audiences have
been drawn to a fantasy
place called "Middle Earth," an ever-changing landscape that
seems almost alien.
The Lord of the Rings may have come from the imagination of two
great storytellers,
author J. R. R. Tolkien and director Peter Jackson, but the
landscape chosen for the
movies was real. This enthralling fantasy world was actually
New Zealand, a land
formed and shaped by two of the most awe-inspiring, yet
destructive, forces known to
humans: volcanoes and plate tectonics. This was one instance
where geology made a
movie even more fascinating.
