Movie Madness is an event pitting 64 films against each other in a knockout tournament style where only one will triumph (to find out more, click here). This round... The Return of the King vs The Lives of Others. Who will progress to the next round? You decide.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)
The closing installment of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic saga, this film gives the resolution to one of cinema's most celebrated trilogies. Featuring battles breathtaking in their scope, fantastical creatures brought to life and the end of Frodo's journey to Mordor, Peter Jackson's adaptation lives up to the legacy of the novels.

The Lives of Others (2006)
Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck's debut, this German drama charts the monitoring of East Germany's cultural scene by the secret police of the time known as the Stasi. Perfectly layered, the film gradually builds up layers of emotion in a way that is powerful but never jarring.
