#9 - Flight to the Ford

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)

Part 9: Arwen's Midnight Ride

 

Manu (@ManuclearBomb) and Emily (@JRRTweetein) wrap up the first book (no, not that one) of The Fellowship of the Ring, as Arwen makes a harrowing escape with Frodo to the Ford of Bruinen. This gives us a chance to discuss how Tolkien divided up his three-volume saga, and discuss how these films broadly handle women characters and femininity. If you want it, come and take it!
