Predicts Fellowship will win Best Picture.

Sir Ian McKellen is backing The Fellowship Of The Ring to win this

year’s Oscar for Best Picture.

He thinks it will win because Tolkien’s world is so popular amongst

Hollywood filmmakers.

The first Lord Of The Rings film has been nominated for 13 Oscars.

McKellen, who plays Gandalf in the movie trilogy, told Richard and

Judy: [[ ]]I’ll stick my neck out and say it’s going to win Best Picture.”
