Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to our studio Today in our "Everything about..." series we are going to talk about "The Lord of the Rings" which is consid-ered to be the film of the century! Meet the team which presented us such a miracle!

Ведущий представляет гостей.

H: We are waiting for questions from the audience and our viewers. Our contact phone number is 55-66-00. My first question is for Peter Jackson. How do you feel about the film?

P.J.: My idea about "The Lord of the Rings" is this: Im sure that all events of the book took place in real life. I mean this feeling appears when you finish reading it. And thats why I consider these films more as histori-cal then as fantasy ones. I wouldnt have dared to create such a film, if it werent "The Lord of the Rings", The world of the book is so wonderful, exciting and charming, that I think it is worth spending 3.5 years of my life on.

Н : Oh, we have a question from the audience.

J.: Peter, was it difficult for you to deal with young and inexperienced actors?

PJ.: First of all, I cant say theyre inexperienced. Elijah, for example, has taken part in about 8 films and worked, with such masters as Kevin Costner and Mel Gibson. I remember that several days after the beginning we were shooting a scene where hobbits entered a city inhabited by humans. These creatures, no taller than a meter, found themselves among gigantic men and women. Elijah looked so frightened and stunned that I really believed he was a creature twice as short as normal people.

JE.W.1 Thanks, Peter. As for me, it was wonderful to work

Peter and the others. Peter was ready to listen to all Ideas and we had meetings where we discussed scenes and characters. Our ideas were taken into consideration and we felt a part of the process.

V.M.: I met a lot of friends here, and especially 1 found much in common with Sean Beano, Orlando Bloom. The members of our Fellowship even made a tattoo, it is an Elvish number "nine", and we were supposed to keep it secret, but someone let the cat from the bag. Actually, 1 suspect Frodo, hes a bit talkative.

E.W.: Oh, it wasnt me! Dont get at me, Im a poor hobbit, and all these tall people...

O.B.: Well, and every time like this! As for me, it was a great honor to work together with such Masters as Sir Ian McKellen and Sir Ian Holm. It was the time of fantastic non-stop nightmare, we all were charmed by the book and turned into a crowd of Tolkien fans and it was wonderful.

Fan: My question is to Sir McKellen. You are considered to be a highbrow actor. How did you come to Holly-wood?

LIVL: Well, Ive played a lot of parts in the theatre and on TV: Macbeth, King Lear, Adolf Hitler, poet John Keats, even Russian tsar Nicolas the Second, but Hollywood producers thought that Im too great for their films! (Laughs) But sometimes they turned for help when they couldnt do themselves, for example, I took part in "Gods and Monsters1 and was even nominated for an Oscar! But theyve spoilt me! Look, where Т am filming now: the X-men! (Laughs)

Fan: Do you mean you regret that youve played the part of Gandalt?

UV1: Oh never, not at all! It was a chance to try something new. Im really fascinated with Gandalfs character: wise, strong-willed, kind, experienced.

J.: My question is to Orlando. Why did you decide to be an actor?

O.B.: I wanted to become an actor when Т was nine. At that time I was in love with a very pretty girl and I dreamed to fly and rescue her from something terrible. When I learned that Superman was an actor, my first thought was: "It is for me!" So I can say that I became an actor because of beautiful women.

H.: Well, about beautiful women. Peter, how did you man-age to find your Princess of Elves?

P.J.: Actually, it took us a long time to find an actress for this role. I said to myself: "I need an actress more beautiful and perfect than an ordinary woman". When I saw Liv, I understood that my dream had come true. I was looking for an actress with such a nature, who is able to understand the princess who fell in love with a mortal man and refused eternal life for the sake of love.

Fan: Liv, you are extremely beautiful!

UT.: Thanks!

Fan: You were the most popular girl at school, werent | you?

L.T.:Oh, strange as it may seems but no! was considered to be the ugliest girl in my class. My class-mates teased me and called liver sausage. 1 often: cried and my grand says that I came home all in tears.! All my family tried to console me but I was in de-spair. Actually, I dont like to remember my school life.

H.: Liv, you had to learn a lot of things for the film, didnt | you?

L.T.: Yes, 1 learnt to ride a horse, speak Elvish and fight with swords. It wasnt easy, but it was extremely interesting!

H.: Did you have any problems with communicating with your partners? Did you quarrel?

L.T.:Oh, of course, not! From this point of view the work was rather easy. But all of us were very tired,

V.M.: 1 agree, I got tired so much that I had some sort of hallucination. I really believed that Liv was the Prin-cess of Elves.

J.R.-D.: As for me, 1 think we would have done nothing with the film, if it werent lor two people - Peter and Viggo.

E.W.: Viggo was a real source of inspiration for all of us, and an example of a real professional. Even when we had days off, he took a horse and went practicing. ( V.M. looks very confused}

V.M.: Thanks but actually ...........
