Twenty years after the final film was released, the NFSA is proud to bring all three parts of Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings to Arc Cinema on 35mm film over three nights!

When Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood) receives a ring from his uncle Bilbo (Ian Holm), it sets the hobbit on a dangerous quest with the fate of all Middle-earth at stake.

Winning a total of 17 Academy Awards, The Lord of the Rings trilogy quickly became a classic series in modern cinema, with breathtaking cinematography, phenomenal acting and a story that deserves to be seen on the big screen.

Tickets for all three films are available at a special triple-pass price of $25 ($20 concession) or can be bought individually for $12 ($10 concession). 

Presented on 35mm film prints from the NFSA collection.
