## Resource

This week we’re jumping from one big adaptation of British literature to another. It’s a movie about a fellowship, but this time, they call it a league. And it’s extraordinary!! Joining us for this bonus (!!) is returning champion Stephen Hilger of the very great Into the Aether podcast! We’re piecing together one of the strangest movies out there… and still trying to figure out why Sean Connery turned down Gandalf but said yes to Quartermain.
