only thing on it was the sentence “In a hole in the ground‚ there lived a hobbit.” Of course‚ Tolkien took it upon himself to create an entire story around this “hobbit.” He felt as though he had to find out what exactly it was and ended up creating a world-famous series complete with maps and languages completely made up from the mind of the man himself.

throughout the movie‚ as well as themes of loyalty and judgement. Rose’s mother died of cancer in the movie‚ and the neighbours have developed cancers as well. At the end of the movie Ginny thinks the causes of these cancers stem from the contaminated water system in Zebulon County.
