The Making of "Star Wars" Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (Star Wars Episode III) |
Editorial Review:
In 1977 George Lucas brought Star Wars to the big screen - and made cinema history. Almost thirty years later he completed the saga with Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. This is the behind-the-scenes look at the making of the most important Star Wars film, the movie that explained the rise of the Empire and the creation of Darth Vader. With hundreds of images pulled from the official Lucasfilm archives, and full insight in to the movie-making process gleaned from interviews with the cast, the crew and George Lucas himself, this is the perfect book for fans of Star Wars.

In "Part 3" it mostly talks about adding...more info
SMOKE AND MIRRORS:
Well, it's been about 30 years in the making but the Star Wars saga finally came to an end with the release of Revenge of the Sith. This book is about all the hard work, both in front of and behind the camera, that made the final film possible. As with the DVDS I felt that too much time was spent on the "technical" aspects of the film and not enough was spent on the actors, the scriptwriting process, and the themes of the work as a whole. I guess what I'm trying to say is that Star Wars films and this...more info
