Fair use in Tolkien and the classical world

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Orlando Bloom as the Elf-archer Legolas in Peter Jackson's film trilogy of The Lord of the Rings
Author or copyright owner	Peter Jackson
Source ( WP:NFCC#4 )	screenshot of film The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
Date of publication	2002
Use in article ( WP:NFCC#7 )	Tolkien and the classical world
Purpose of use in article ( WP:NFCC#8 )	Show how the actor appeared in the film, as discussed in the article text.
Not replaceable with free media because ( WP:NFCC#1 )	All other images from the film would also be in copyright.
Not replaceable with textual coverage because ( WP:NFCC#1 )	No amount of text can convey the visual impact of youthful heroism of the film star in the role, no matter how finely-crafted.
Minimal use ( WP:NFCC#3 )	It's the only non-free image in the article; it's a single frame from a long film; and it's at poor resolution.
Respect for commercial opportunities ( WP:NFCC#2 )	After over 20 years of commercial exploitation and the wide dissemination of high-resolution images of the film and the film star, a single reduced frame is not going to make any appreciable difference.
