Today's new video is "When Star
Wars Ruled The World." This 2004 VH1 documentary provided interviews with Star
Wars stars Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, James Earl Jones, Billy
Dee Williams, and more!
Few movies have reached the iconic status of the
original Star Wars trilogy. A long-shot science fiction project that was
rejected by multiple Hollywood studios, Star Wars (and its creator George Lucas)
defied the skeptics and became one of the biggest pop culture phenomena of all
time. Now VH1 and Lucasfilm provide this hour-long documentary that takes
viewers back to those rapturous moments when the whole world wanted to wield a
lightsaber.
The show begins in the mid-1970s as George Lucas struggles
to find a way to make his dream project a reality. Relive the incredible and
unlikely impact of the first Star Wars movie, the sudden fame of unknowns like
Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher, and the way fans around the world
fell in love, first with the movie and then with the action figures, pillow
cases, C-3PO cereal and everything else they could - and did - line up to
buy.
The show also chronicles the immense anticipation for the first
Star Wars sequel, The Empire Strikes Back and the build-up to the climactic
Return of the Jedi that had fans traveling hundreds of miles to visit the gates
of the movie's set. Along the way, they will highlight the cultural impression
made on millions of fans by Star Wars icons like Darth Vader, Ewoks, and Yoda,
and lines like "I am your father," "That's no moon. It's a space station," and,
"May the force be with you." Enjoy!
