New Zealand police say 17 people died on the country’s roads during the holidays, which ran from 4 p.m. on Dec. 24 until 6 a.m. on Jan. 5. The number of fatalities is up from the 11 deaths during last year’s holiday.
It’s probably fair to say that most visitors to New Zealand aren’t thinking about the country’s cinematic history aside from perhaps “The Lord of the Rings.”
