Fate and Free Will in Middle-Earth vs. “The Adjustment Bureau” | Tolkien & Modern Culture

Rounding out my discussion of fate and free will in Middle-earth, here’s a comparison of how Tolkien handles these topics with the 2011 film, “The Adjustment Bureau.”

For a crash course on how Tolkien handles the topic broadly, see my first video in this mini-series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIzDndXGRsY

I also have videos on these themes in the story of Turin (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lROuU1RPDpU) and in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvVkE3bBmzM)
