"Parting is sweet sorrow." - Geoff Murphy, second unit director of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy

This t-shirt is designed for the most dedicated fans of the appendices and behind-the-scenes material from the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The burning orange office chair is an obscure reference to the scruffy-looking chair that Geoff Murphy, the second unit director of the trilogy, always brought to set. During filming, the chair became iconic among the cast and crew. When filming concluded, Geoff Murphy famously said, "Parting is sweet sorrow" before dramatically tourching the chair and setting it on fire.
