Sean Astin's The Long and Short of It comes as a special feature on The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers DVD. Now, it can't be more than a few minutes long, and it's certainly not a masterpiece in film making, but the simple message of people of all statures coming together to aid in one thing is really sweet. There is no dialogue, no distractions. It's a wonderful little film courtsey of the spectacular cast and crew of Rings. I also recommend The Making of 'The Long and Short of It'...which is actually longer, oddly enough, and is quite entertaining. (Andy Serkis & Elijah Wood are priceless!)
