Return of The King, the final installment of The Lord of the Rings trilogy, leads the Oscar nominations, which comes as no surprise to anyone who has watched the three films.
Peter Jackson's monumental film effort is incredible on several levels:
1--It is incredibly faithful to the books;
2--The three films are some nine hours of total viewing time yet manage to hold the viewer's attention throughout;
3--And, for a change, we have three films featuring incredible special effects that did not come out of George Lucas's Industrial Light & Magic studios.
If the film sweeps Oscar night, as it should, each and every award will be justly deserved.
