Thanks to Elendil then. But you are the one who shared the film with me. I was just being grateful.

I had forgotten to thank you and felt like saying thanks.

I had the unique privilege of seeing the first screening of this at the Liberty Tree mall theater and having the print break halfway through. While they stopped it for 20 or so minutes to splice the print back together. Right at the Ringwraith scene. I was there with a buddy of mine Nathaniel, and his brother Eliot. Fellowship was a great film to experience except for the broken print and audio going wacky while it unspooled and broke.

The splice was an inventive temporary solution as they had to order a replacement reel for future showings.
