Film is a product of culture which has been develop in such way with a variety of genres. Film also considered as the new media of literature which is usually used by some film-makers to deliver the idea or concept. In a film, not only the work of literature which is served but also the ideas and elements of audio-visual. A film genre like fiction is usually used to express an extraordinary imaginative thought about the existence in the world. In this research, the writer analyzes a fiction movie The Lord of the Rings which is adapted from the novel by J. R. R Tolkien with the same tittle. This film has three different separate parts. The first part is The Fellowship of the Ring, the second is The Two Towers, and the last is The Return of the King. From those parts, the writer focuses on the first part which tells about the involvement of Hobbits, a strange, unique, and weak creatures in a war. This research aims to identify and explore the character of Hobbits. This research uses the objective approach, and applies the structuralism theory by Jonathan Culler, as well as film theory by Christian Metz. Culler’s basic theory is about how the meaning of the particular object is produced. As the result of this research, the writer concludes that some elements of the Hobbits such as their nature, their lifestyle, and the landscape are resemble the rural folk, Pastoral. Regarding the process of referring the meaning, applying Culler’s concept, those meanings are obtained by examination of the Hobbits start from their physical appearance, non-physical appearance, roles, and their homeland as well.
