IMDb profile

The Two Towers is a film adapted from J. R. R. Tolkien's classic book of the same name. It is the second in Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy. The film made significant changes, including making the battle of Helm's Deep the climax of the film. Instead of ending the film with Frodo's capture by the orcs in Shelob's Lair, the character of Faramir attempts to take the ring to Gondor.
