The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

Peter Jackson's 2001 adaptation of Tolkien's epic fantasy prioritizes timeless themes of heroism, friendship, and good vs. evil. The diverse Fellowship (humans, elf, dwarf, hobbits, wizard) represents unity against a universal threat, not identity politics or DEI quotas. No progressive messaging, social justice lectures, or modern equity themes; women like Arwen and Galadriel are strong but fit traditional roles. Storytelling reigns supreme.
