The narrative of the film focuses on the hero journey of Luke Skywalker (Hamill), an everyman who becomes caught in the galactic conflict between the Empire and the Rebellion after coming into possession of two droids, R2-D2 (Baker) and C-3PO (Daniels), the first of whom is carrying the schematics of the Empire's ultimate weapon, the Death Star. Star Wars takes place "a long time ago", in a fictional universe inhabited by both humans and various alien species most of the known galaxy is ruled by the tyrannical Galactic Empire, which is only opposed by the Rebel Alliance, a group of freedom fighters. Lucas had the idea for a science-fiction film in the vein of Flash Gordon around the time he completed his first film, THX 1138 (1971), and began working on a treatment after the release of American Graffiti (1973). It is the first film in the Star Wars film series and fourth chronological chapter of the " Skywalker Saga". It stars Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Peter Cushing, Alec Guinness, David Prowse, James Earl Jones, Anthony Daniels, Kenny Baker and Peter Mayhew.
So hardcore, in fact, that you're going to have to be OK with the softness of film.Star Wars (retroactively titled Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope) is a 1977 American epic space opera film written and directed by George Lucas, produced by Lucasfilm and distributed by 20th Century Fox. If you're going to watch this Silver Screen edition of the film, you're going to have to be hardcore. They've spent their time and their own hard-earned cash to make this project a reality. This project was put into action by a crew called Team Negative1. This hard copy was created some time between the original release and the re-release in 1981.
Luckily the film stock found for this project was a low-fade release print, apparently released using the original theater-released edition of the movie. If you'll remember the restoration process done before the release of the Star Wars: Special Edition films in 1997, you'll recall George Lucas speaking about the degradation of the film stock since its original release. They've put in countless hours restoring the film print back to the quality it was seen in theaters in 1977. That's not happened, adding another layer of not-quite on-the-level business going on here.īut the people that've done the work to bring the film to you, the public, the ravenous, ravenous Star Wars fan-filled public, they deserve all sorts of thanks.
