Tabb You could always read the books <g>. On the other hand, you may wish to see the film first as it lost some of its impact on me because I knew what was coming (I re-read the books this year). It is like Janet said, it is basically a good vs. evil plot but it uses a lot of mythology for its creatures (then again what were the Anakim and the Rephaim!). Tolkein was a Christian and a friend/colleague of C. S. Lewis. Not sure how Lewis was instrumental in bringing Lewis to the Lord unless it was by constant debate as Lewis "thought" himself into the kingdom. Firstly, he accepted that there was a god and then studied religion to decide which was true. If you want to know the full story you can read his autobiography, "Surprised by Joy".
