I would like to ask Mr Freeman some questions.

First of all what was like to portray Bilbo Baggins ? Does the character  have any similarities with you ?

Secondly, what's your favorite aspect of Tolkien's Middle Earth ? If you were given the chance to live in that world, what would you prefer to be : an elf , a dwarf , a hobbit , a man or an orc and why ?

Finally, i would be so glad if you answered the following question. Why do you think that the books and the movies have so much success in today's world ? For instance, i believe that because of the fact that   many people today feel so annoyed and dissapointed about the serious problems which  we face , they find shelter in the fictional world of Tolkien. What's your opinion ?

Thank you !
