My friend, Sergei, wasn't surprised by the revelations because he lived there when it happened, but, he can count on one hand at least 9 inaccuracies.

What a breath of fresh air about a real person, told in reality about real problems and fascinating real progress in the human spirit with real solutions by real people. The romance between Tolkien and Bratt is carefully and sincerely woven through the story as is his delicate survival in the horrible trenchs of the Somme in WW1. Authentic fellowship and tragedy about Tolkien that helps you understand why he created languages and eventually The Hobbitt. Love every minute of it.

Asians? Chinese? Nothing Chinese or Asian about the film. Everyone is either very British or American. The scenery is British Asian styles, not Chinese. And the entire plot is as vacuous as the voided hearts of those whose story it tries to tell. Boring, NOT funny at any point, and, again, not about Chinese people for they'll all very Banana...yellow on the outside and white in the middle. False advertising title. Should be called "Crazy Director Wants your Money to make him Rich."
