I've now finished "The Fellowship of the Ring". It is amazing how messed up the films are - it wasn't my memory that was faulty.

The films do have some marvellous spectacle and effects. And they have much less time to tell the story than the radio adaption, so of course, even more has been cut.

But what irritates me about the films are the changes in plot and character and time sequence that appear to not have been necessary to make the adaption.
