Christian symbolism is carried over from the books, although in a very discreet manner: When the Fellowship parts from Lothlorien, a white-clad Galadriel makes a blessing gesture looking much like Catholic statues of Virgin Mary. Jackson bows to Tolkien with subtle grace: the film opens in total darkness, and the voice of Cate Blanchett begins to speak in Elvish. Because with Tolkien the languages came first, and then the people who spoke them, and their stories. In the beginning was the word.
