00:00What struck me first in both rounds was how much of a difference Howard Shore's composition made.

00:05Without him, the film would not have been able to reach such a level.

00:08The King's Theme 1 is arguably his most beautiful symphony.

00:10I can't explain it, but every time I listen to it, it puts me in a state of melancholy.

00:13It gives off a feeling of heroism, of pride.

00:16In short, she makes me want to ride a horse.

00:18And that's good, since King 1 is the people of horses, and he is at the heart of the plot of this second opus,

00:23his novel wanting to annihilate him in order to eradicate the race of men,

00:26which will lead to the famous Battle of Helm's Deep.

00:29And what can we say about this sequence without falling into crude clichés?

00:32It's hard because it's such a piece of cinematic bravura.

00:35which will lay the foundations for the Hollywood climax of the following 20 years,

00:39without anyone managing to achieve such epic breath.

00:41Beyond the very marked visual aspect, the Uruk-ai who arrive in the rain in this bluish night,

00:46It's Jackson's direction that makes the difference.

00:48He makes a point of iconizing the place with aerial tracking shots,

00:51but above all he demonstrates real pedagogy in the management of space.

00:54Because despite the general mess of the battle and the complexity of this structure,

00:59at no time do you feel lost in this environment.

01:01We know exactly where each action takes place,

01:03and that's something that many people forget to put in place today.

01:06Try to find your way around the battlefield of Avengers Endgame, and good luck!

01:09Some people will be put off by the likelihood of Gandalf and Heroirim's arrival,

01:13who descend a wall on horseback,

01:15but this is precisely the approach wanted by the director,

01:18who associates this with divine intervention.

01:20Then it allows us to close the sequence in the most beautiful way,

01:22even if for me the film should have ended with the death of Saruman,

01:26which should never have disappeared from the final cut.

01:28Because well, finishing the first opus on this level,

01:31and the second on this plan,

01:32it generates a slight feeling of frustration,

01:34saying to himself that the two Hobbits have made absolutely no progress.

01:37And that will be the weak point of this second film.

01:39Frodo and Sam's journey, which will be deliberately slowed down,

01:42and which will end up becoming quite repetitive,

01:45notably through the duality between Sam and Gollum.

01:47Knowing that on top of that, you have to go through the hassles,

01:49that Peter Jackson deliberately made boring

01:51to accentuate Mary and Pippin's frustration,

01:54and the satisfaction of finally seeing them take part in the conflict at the end of the film.

01:57This is why, in terms of story development,

01:59For me, this is the weakest opus.

02:00But at the same time, it was predictable,

02:02because it's complicated to make the second film of a saga,

02:05a unit that holds together, and a work in its own right.

02:07I love the two towers,

02:08and I understand that narratively,

02:09it was essential to separate the community,

02:12in order to set up parallel quests,

02:13and to make the issues more intense.

02:15However, I'm still more fond of this unity from the first film.

02:18Because, well, inevitably,

02:20some plots will be more interesting than others.

02:22Now, even though this is a transitional episode,

02:24It's still a very nice transition,

02:26and a great moment of cinema.

02:28New Zealand's panoramas are more sumptuous than ever.

02:30The action is enjoyable.

02:31The new characters are perfectly introduced to the story,

02:34and digital characters still have an effect today.

02:36Sylve Barbe, who is also vocally interpreted by John Rhys-Davis,

02:40the actor who plays Gimli,

02:41double pay for him then,

02:42just like Andy Serkis, who also voices the Witch King of Angmar,

02:46in addition to bringing the timeless Gollum to life.

02:49He offers an insane performance,

02:50so much so that he went from being a simple voice actor,

02:53to a true interpreter,

02:54which the Weta Digital department will draw inspiration from to bring the character to life.

02:58One of the most representative scenes of the actor's essential work,

03:01it's this shot against shot,

03:02which evokes the character's schizophrenia,

03:04and whose digital design will be modeled precisely on Andy Serkis' game.

03:08Because yes, we are not yet talking about performance capture at this time.

03:11But we are clearly witnessing the genesis of this process here.

03:14This open ending confirms that the trilogy,

03:16like Tolkien's three novels,

03:18is part of a whole which constitutes a unique and global work.

03:21Although each film has its own specificity,

03:23The two towers stand out for their narrative audacity and darkness.

03:26The return of the king, however, continues to take this path,

03:28but positions itself more as a hybrid

03:30between the styles of the first and second films.

03:33Thanks for watching this video!
