LOTR fans attending Mythopoeic Society’s conference in Boulder, Colorado on July 26 will be the first public to see the new LOTR documentary from Dan Timmons, “The Legacy of Tolkien,” which he’s been working on for over a year.
The documentary features footage of Tolkien himself, artwork by Ted Nasmith, conference video clips from the 2001 Mythcon (where Quickbeam and mywelf were among the interviewees), and interviews with many scholars and writers, including Peter Beagle, Philippa Boyens, Patrick Curry, Verlyn Flieger, Joseph Pearce, and Tom Shippey.
Hopefully this documentary will be in wider release soon!
