10 Best Movies Actors Did After The Lord Of The Rings

10. Elijah Wood - I Don’t Feel At Home In This World Anymore (2017)

Both Elijah Wood and his character had the biggest burdens to bare during the trilogy. Not only did Frodo have the all encompassing weight of the One ring to endure, but the 18 year old Wood needed the acting chops to carry the whole story. He didn't disappoint.

Although he hasn't appeared in too many big roles since The Return of the King in 2003, with exception of a small cameo in Sin City, he has stared in a number of smaller budget movies.

This charmingly tragic but ever humours dark-comedy displayed Woods ability to carry a great story once again. He co-stared alongside the ever watchable Melanie Lynskey. The film centres around the exploits of two neighbours, who after a spat of burglaries take it upon themselves to doll out some vigilantly justice.

What starts out as just a fun concept for a movie quickly turns into a thrilling romp of mayhem as the two characters go to greater and greater lengths to return their stolen goods. The movie skilfully walks a fine line between gritty comedy and a romance story, as the two characters begin to develop a touching affection for one another.

It's one of those lesser known gems hidden in the independent section of Netflix and it's well worth your time.
