Review of Star Wars (1977) by Christian C — 23 Jul 2018

A New Hope (1977): Much has been said about A new hope and I do not need to add to it except for the fact that this film is fantastic- well paced and featuring the appearance of so many memorable characters and scenes.

Lucas as a young man sure had an eye for details and it's a pity how he lost this ability by the time he started filming the prequels. The locations, atmosphere and camerawork is so different than the later films it is hard to imagine they were both directed by the same man.

Anyway if you haven't already then please watch A new hope and then slowly make your way through the entire saga.
