- Description
The title reads 'Tired but happy the protagonists retire to savour their rewards'. In the first frame PM John Key holds hands with a Hobbit while film producer Peter Jackson stands behind with a clapper, while in the second frame a group of wealthy American Warner Brothers' representatives loaded with money wave goodbye at the airport. Refers to the dispute between Warner Brothers, represented by Peter Jackson, and NZ Actors Equity over a union demand for negotiations over the terms and conditions offered in the contracts for actors and others working on the film that very nearly caused the film to be made somewhere else. The battle, which has been resolved successfully after meetings between PM John Key and Warner Brothers representatives, divided New Zealanders. The government agreed to amend the country's labour laws and offered a $25m tax break to the Hollywood studio Warner Bros.
