The Hobbit : An Unexpected Journey ...

... And back again.
The insane all-time fan of J.R.R. Tolkien and Peter Jackson is back from the cinema and has still not quite returned to normal life, like as happened in 2001, 2002 and 2003.
And so is not able to deliver any sort of review yet about this first installment of "The Hobbit".
(But coming soon ... )
Meanwhile I'll be replaying the score by Howard Shore, one of the greatest composers ever.

De retour du cinéma, je n'ai toujours pas touché terre et j'ai bien du mal à me faire à l'idée. Le rêve recommence, comme il y a onze ans, lorsque j'ai ouvert pour la première fois la première page du Seigneur des Annneaux ... Donc, compte rendu du film plus tard. Là je vais me contenter de réécouter le CD de la b.o. d'Howard Shore, un des compositeurs les plus géniaux de tous les temps ... (Oui rien que ça).

قريبا ... أفكاري عن واحد من أكبار الأفلام ... من أكبر المؤلفين ... ... شاهدت لتو أحلامي الطفولية من جديد.

The Master Has Spoken (1)

(J. R. R. Tolkien, in response to criticism of his writing fantasy (fantasy being “inferior” & mere “escapism”))

“Of course it is escapist. That is its glory! When a soldier is a prisoner of war it is his duty to escape - and take as many with him as he can. The moneylenders, the know-nothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as possible.”
