Synopsis

Peter Jackson's epic take on JRR Tolkien's classic tale The Lord of the Rings has become a cinematic phenomenon - a trilogy filmed together, over eighteen months and with the cast becoming a close-knit family. Sean Astin is a veteran of over 30 movies, but knew that this would be different. Cast as Samwise Gamgee, Frodo's devoted friend, Sean lived the dream at first hand, even directing a film about the making of the trilogy for the DVD release of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. In There and Back Again, Sean shares his experiences of the time and his, as yet unheard and often controversial opinions on, among other things: The other cast members including Sir Ian McKellen, Orlando Bloom, Liv Tyler. The direction; The producers; The dangers on set; There and Back Again is a personal behind-the-scenes look at what it was like to be involved in making one of the biggest movie franchises of all time from one of the main actors on set.
