She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self. In addition to Eva Kollisch’s memoirs Girl in Movement (2000) and The Ground Under My Feet (2014), LBI’s collections include an oral history interview with Eva conducted in 2014 and the papers of Eva’s mother, poet Margarete Kolllisch, which document Eva’s childhood experience on the Kindertransport.

Are Peter Jackson’s Deviations from Tolkien Really Justified by Adaptation? 19:22

3 days ago19:22

19:22

In response to my video on how Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy managed to win the loyalty of many book fans despite its many changes from the source material, I received a number of comments explaining how his changes were necessitated by the adaptation of a book to a movie. But does that excuse really hold water? I don’t think so.

Did Gandalf Make a Huge Blunder Allowing Frodo to Wait to Leave the Shire? 26:13

A while back I got an email from a viewer arguing that Gandalf was, to put it politely, a little slow when it comes to making sure Frodo got started on his quest.

In response to my video about the character flaws of Tolkien’s heroes ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAn8r-kqD4c ),a few people commented that Gandalf’s real issue was the fact that he basically threw other people into dangerous situations to achieve his own ends. Turns out, that’s really not true.

How the Animated Tolkien Films Capture What Jackson Misses 19:50

Last time ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLdAKdYd7sY ) I talked about why Jackson’s films were so impressive despite messing up a huge amount of the details of the story and characters. But despite being (pretty objectively, I think) the best Tolkien films by purely cinematic standards, there are other films that have their own merits, and here’s why you should watch them if you haven’t already.

Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy are great cinema, there’s no denying that. But as adaptations they leave a lot to be desired. Why is it, then, that so many book fans still think of his movies as successful adaptations?

Tolkien’s Heroes Are NOT Perfect—Let’s Look at Their Character Flaws 31:51

A common critique of Tolkien is that there is no moral greyness, that every character is totally good or totally bad. If you pay even a little attention, though, it’s clear that this just isn’t true. All Tolkien’s heroes are imperfectly good at best, and have pretty significant character flaws.

The final entry in Peter Jackson’s LOTR trilogy may radically depart from the book in many respects, but there are some areas where his changes aren’t so obvious, or at least the casual reader might not remember what he changed it from.
