5. Luthien is Tolkien’s Best Bad Ass Heroine
One of the normal reactions of Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit is that the heroes are all men. The book rendition of The Hobbit doesn’t have a solitary female character. Eowyn essentially remains solitary in the LOTR books, in spite of the fact that Peter Jackson colossally extended Arwen’s role in the films.
Beren and Lúthien appears as though it’s heading in a similar course when Lúthien’s dad gives Beren a mission to win his daughter for marriage. In a subversion, Beren and his male band of buddies fail disastrously and Lúthien needs to escape from her dad and actually confront Sauron to rescue her lover. She does all the truly difficult work, including taking a precious gem from Morgoth while Beren follows along. Adequately, Lúthien takes matters into her own particular hands and finishes the mission herself to guarantee she can wed the man she adores.
6. It’s the First Time That Eagles Save The Day
In earlier distributed renditions of the story, Lúthien and Beren steal the gem from Morgoth’s crown. However, they then get themselves caught with no hope of escaping. It appears to be sure that the heroes will be caught and subjected to torment. However, later on, three colossal eagles swoop in all of a sudden and help them out of danger. In the event that that sounds familiar, it’s because Tolkien utilized a similar plot gadget to save Bilbo and the dwarves in The Hobbit. Afterwards, he utilized it again to save Sam and Frodo toward the end of LotR
