There are a number of short films that have been made over the years by fans, often fans who work in the film industry, to make stories out of Middle Earth come to life.

The first one I saw was Born of Hope, a story of Arathorn's death.


Now I've found The Hunt for Gollum, about Aragorn's search.


There really is something just a bit magical about film.
Has anyone come across independently made films of stories not part of The Hobbit or Lord of the Rings?

Born of Hope is fairly good, and Hunt for Gollun a bit less so.

I heard someone was working on an indie-fan movie of Beren and Lúthien last year but haven't heard any more about it.
