These films represent to him...

... not only

what can be achieved technologically...

... but the movie looks like

advanced for the industry.

It has a larger project...

... Which is to transform

how to make movies.

Anyone who watched A New Hope

thought he was crazy.

It was a very personal film for him.

GLENN KENNY:

Editor Galaxy Not So Far Away

And the people around him told

I was a fool.

Proved everybody wrong.

It was a huge success.

Hollywood, California, August 1977.

A triumphant moment

in film history...

... when the two heroes of War

of galaxies leave traces...

... on the ground reserved

to screen legends.

Everyone knows

Star Wars ...

R2-D2

... has become

a social phenomenon by any reckoning.

I found the invitation

the first preview of the film.

I remember when it appeared the title,

rose and disappeared...

ANTHONY WAYE:

Executive producer James Bond 007

... Was very impressive.

And then, when he entered

the spacecraft above...

... The audience went wild.

When you see Wars

on the screen with the music...

... Is best, because when

that starts, say, "Yes! go!"

Richard Sandling

Comedian

And then...

We all have a film like that

that of children...

... Shakes us inside.

George Lucas was everything to me...

DEREK AMBROSI:

Fan

... Because it was like a god, the creator.

EDWARD HINES, Jr.

Fan

That man is a genius

with all the letters.

JOSEPH A. COVAS - ADAM W. JAMES

Filmmakers fans

He took a "No"

and transformed it into a huge "Yes".

You can not downplay

to Wars .

TODD?HANSON

Writer and editor The Onion

The whole world was astonished.

I remember getting

all calls from my mother...

Neil Gaiman

Author

I had been... United States...

... And told me about a movie

called Star Wars .

I remember it was a very rainy day.

GERARDO SANCHEZ RODRIGUES

Madrid, Spain

I went to the old cinema in Madrid.

And so it began.

I saw Star Wars

with my grandmother.

MICHAEL ARIAS:

Director of Tekkonkinkreet

transition

between the end of the first film...

... and parking

West Covina...

Transition must be... more

jarring I've experienced.

It was like being born.

1977, was the capture of a moment

spectacular was the world.

social pressure and economic

mixed and forced people...

Evade... are at the movies

during two hours.

You gave them a product

and a great story.

While our faith in religion

of our fathers died...

Gave us... a new myth

to understand ourselves...

... And our world.

It is like playing

something universal and sublime...

... On the human experience.

It is difficult to George Lucas

the level of Shakespeare and Homer...

... But you know what?

It is not the author.
