Short Film Review...

Many would say this is inconceivable, but I never really got into the Star Wars thing. In fact, I've only ever seen the first three. Well, the second three. Well, the fourth, fifth & sixth. You know which ones I mean - the first three to be released.

I've never really done the "short film" thing either. In my experience they always concentrate too much on being arty farty rather than trying to get a decent story or message across. Sweeping generalisation I know.

That all changed this morning. Unable to sleep at a ridiculous hour, I went through and put the TV on and caught a great little film on the Sci Fi Channel called "George Lucas in Love" which I supposed you could say is the real first episode of Star Wars.

Fortunately, people have had the foresight to post it on YouTube so take a look for yourselves here - I think it's 8 minutes of movie that's well worth seeing...

Yes, I agree. That was great. Loved the inspiration for Darth Vader!
