«The Unauthorized Star Wars Story is everything you'd expect an unauthorized
video to be: fun and full of gossip. In 1977,
Star Wars took the
world by surprise and this documentary traces its history (Lucas had trouble
obtaining funding for "the big sci-fi-space-adventure-Flash-Gordon thing," as it
was called), interviews the actors, and looks at the cultish fandom that sprang
up around the movie (Japanese fans traveled to the U.S. on Star Wars tours
merely to see the film before it opened in their own country). The dish is
plentiful and entertaining: Carrie Fisher hated Princess Leia's hair, pranksters
would paste pictures of naked women in R2D2's costume, the actors thought the
film was "rubbish" as they were making it. The many interview clips include
discussions with Charles Lippincott, former vice president of Lucasfilm; Anthony
Daniels, who played C3PO; Harrison Ford; Peter Mayhew, who played Chewbacca;
Kenny Baker, better known as R2D2; Carrie Fisher; Mark Hamill; Rick McCallum,
producer of
The
Phantom Menace; and George Lucas. Occasionally the
documentary gives a bit too much information (do we really need to see George
Lucas's hometown and listen to his neighbors?), but no matter--it doesn't
detract from the overall voyeuristic nature of the video. The later films are
touched on (Samuel L. Jackson is interviewed), but the concentration is on the
original, Episode IV: A New Hope. Whether you're a casual fan or one of
the devoted who wait all night in line for tickets to the next installment,
The Unauthorized Star Wars Story is an interesting, fun, behind-the-scenes
look at one the best-loved films of all time» (Jerry Brown).
