Definitive History of Peter Jackson's Saga in Middle Earth: Anything You Can Imagine takes us on a cinematic journey through all six films, featuring headline interviews with Peter, the cast, and his collaborators. From the early steps of dreaming to make this project a reality, to the highs and lows of production, the fan worship, and the success at the Oscars.
Illumination: A nine-year-old boy in Pukerua Bay, New Zealand stays up late, captivated by a sixty-year-old vision of a giant ape on an island full of dinosaurs. This is true magic.
Camera: Twenty years later, the boy begins to enchant audiences on the big screen, creating blood-soaked films with unparalleled skill, leading to Academy recognition with a nomination for Heavenly Creatures.
Action: The greatest fantasy work in modern literature, with rights that cause confusion. Ambitious. Complex. This vision can only become reality through Peter Jackson.
Anything You Can Imagine tells the full, dramatic story of how Jackson and his devoted band of New Zealand filmmakers dared to embark on a mission as challenging as Frodo's, turning J.R.R. Tolkien's epic adventure story into cinematic magic and repeating the endeavor with The Hobbit. Rich in new interviews with Jackson, his collaborators, and many of the film's stars, Ian Nathan's enchanting narrative transports us to Middle Earth, allowing us to closely watch the director as he creates the impossible, the unforgettable, and proves that filmmaking is 'anything you can imagine'.
