There And Back Again Forever

Rating: 10/10 (4 July 2013)

There is no shortage to say that Peter Jackson and his staff of creators and actors have left its mark in the history of visual story telling for as long as time shall go.
History will continue to revile this gem of our time, and I feel lucky to be part of its birth and continuation to fill the hearts of love for films. Its visual achievements stand proud even ten years down the evolution of movie crafting, and Howard Shore delivers a score which will define brilliance in motion picture soundtracks.
It is truly one of the rare films I watch dearly once a year, and still gives me chills, smiles and touch the deep heartstrings I so seldom touch in real life.
It is a reminder of the beauty in life, and that darkness is but a passing no matter how great. It is indeed a movie which is pro-life; no matter what your struggles may be in life.
This film is part of my childhood, now in my adult hood and hopefully something dear I can share with my children and their children. Until we all voyage into the west.
