Journey through Tolkien's life - in his own photos and voice
- 200+ photos of Tolkien himself, some are very rare

Tolkien's photos are also precious, but this video isn't just a collection of those.
This photo documentary is meant to be a heartfelt tribute.

================
This documentary may appear "boring" - certainly it will be the case for most viewers.
It is intended that no "modern" music or illustrations were used here -- Tolkien's life story does not require external enhancement.
The audio segments are specially selected from his audio recordings -- Bilbo, Gollum, Frodo and Sam. The ending music also has a personal connection to Tolkien.
There are a lot of details in this video perhaps only a Tolkien reader will notice - and hopefully also find moving.
So, please stay with it until the end -- especially the end.
