But over the ensuing 40 years, the studio has amassed a library of commercial hits including the Nightmare on Elm Street series, Rush Hour, Wedding Crashers and the Oscar-winning Lord of the Rings trilogy to emerge as Hollywood's leading mini-major studio. (New Line is owned by Time Warner, which is also the parent of Time Magazine and Time.com). In that time, Shaye directed just one film, Book of Love, a bawdy 1990 coming-of-age romantic comedy...
