Tolkien
In early 20th-century England, a gifted young scholar and three schoolmates form a lasting fellowship through their shared love of language, literature, and art. As they grow older, romance, ambition, and the outbreak of World War I test the bond that has shaped their lives.
My takeYou may enjoy this if you like gentle literary biopics, heartfelt friendships, and imaginative glimpses of inspiration; Not for you if you want a fast-paced adventure or a deeply detailed biography.
