English Summary:

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is a 2002 epic fantasy adventure film directed by Peter Jackson and based on the second volume of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. It is the second instalment in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, preceded by The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) and concluding with The Return of the King (2003).

Continuing the plot of The Fellowship of the Ring, the film intercuts three storylines. Frodo and Sam continue their journey towards Mordor to destroy the One Ring, meeting and joined by Gollum, the ring's former owner. Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli come to the war-torn nation of Rohan and are reunited with the resurrected Gandalf, before fighting at the Battle of Helm's Deep. Merry and Pippin escape capture, meet Treebeard the Ent, and help to plan an attack on Isengard.

Meeting high critical acclaim, the film was an enormous box-office success, earning over US$926 million worldwide, and is also the highest-grossing film of 2002 (inflation-adjusted, it is the 62nd-most successful film in North America). The film won numerous accolades and was nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and won Best Visual Effects and Best Sound Editing.

 

German Summary:

Der Herr der Ringe: Die zwei Türme ist der zweite Teil der Verfilmung des Romans Der Herr der Ringe von J. R. R. Tolkien aus dem Jahr 2002. Regisseur war Peter Jackson.

Der Film beginnt mit einer Rückblende auf den Kampf zwischen Gandalf und dem Balrog auf der Brücke von Khazad-dûm. Dabei stürzen beide in die Tiefe und Gandalf kämpft im Fallen weiter mit dem Balrog, den er schließlich tötet: Er selbst überlebt schwer verletzt. Sam und Frodo werden zu dieser Zeit von Gollum verfolgt. Als dieser die beiden Hobbits überfällt, nehmen sie ihn gefangen. Frodo hat Mitleid mit ihm und glaubt, Gollum könne sie an ihr Ziel nach Mordor führen. Sam hingegen ist von diesem Vorschlag wenig begeistert und beobachtet Gollum wachsam und misstrauisch. Nach einiger Zeit kann Sam seine Abneigung gegenüber Gollum kaum noch verbergen, während Frodo zunehmend Verständnis für ihn aufbringt, da er als Ringträger die Situation Gollums, der den Ring lange Zeit besaß, nachempfinden kann.

Den Hobbits Merry und Pippin gelingt es inzwischen, sich in Rohan aus der Gewalt der Uruk-hai zu befreien. Bei ihrer Flucht geraten sie in den Fangorn-Wald und treffen dort auf einen Ent (Baumhirten) namens Baumbart. Merry und Pippin versuchen Baumbart den bevorstehenden Krieg zwischen den Völkern zu erklären. Es wird beschlossen, ein Treffen aller Ents, ein „Entthing“ (vgl. das germanische Thing), einzuberufen. Die Ents lassen sich sehr viel Zeit für ihre Beratungen, und so werden Merry und Pippin zunehmend ungeduldig. Nach geraumer Zeit beschließen die Ents, sich aus der Sache herauszuhalten. Das können die Hobbits nicht verstehen, müssen es jedoch akzeptieren und bitten Baumbart, sie in den Süden des Fangorn zu bringen, um den Heimweg antreten zu können. Auf diesem Weg gelangen sie an den Rand von Isengard, wo Baumbart das Ausmaß der Verwüstung durch Saruman erkennt, der weite Teile der Wälder abholzen und verheizen ließ.
