Re: LOTR credit line

Good evening!

If you saw Frodo finishing writing The Red Book in one of the last scenes,
you will have noticed that he makes a curl over the o's, three dots over a's
etc. (a feature of Tengwar, the Elvish writing), but using Latin uncial
letters. Perhaps in the credit line, that's just been the same thing. I saw
ROTK on 23rd Dec - unfortunately I went out just when the film was over, not
seeing the whole credits stuff.
