Tuor of Gondolin has just left Hobbiton.

Yep. Dûrbelethwen got it. Interesting that recent copies of The Hobbit
(and the annotated Hobbit) have gone back to that cover, which is
how I spotted it.

And it is unfortunate that Tolkien was so insistent that Edith convert,
especially since Anglicanism is much closer to Catholicism then other
forms of Protestanism.

As for the movie, I rather like postscript notes in movies when
appropriate, so I really think a brief later biography of Douglas
Gresham would have been appropriate, epecially given his
involvement in Lewis's literary estate.
