STAR WARS is arguably one of the most inventive and entertaining films ever made‚ garnering generations of loyal fans who are forever imprinted with the memory of its characters and dialogue. As the adventure begins‚ Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill)‚ an impulsive but goodhearted young man who lives on the dusty planet of Tatooine with his aunt and uncle‚ longs for the exciting life of a Rebel soldier. The Rebels‚ led by the headstrong Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher)‚ are fighting against the evil Empire‚ which has set about destroying planets inhabited by innocent citizens with the Death Star‚ a fearsome planetlike craft commanded by Grand Moff Tarkin (Peter Cushing) and the eternally frightful Darth Vader (David Prowse‚ with the voice of James Earl Jones). When Luke's aunt and uncle are murdered by the Empire?s imperial stormtroopers and he mysteriously finds a distress message from Princess Leia in one of his androids‚ R2-D2 (Kenny Baker)‚ he must set out to find Obi-Wan Kenobi (Alec Guinness)‚ a mysterious old hermit with incredible powers. On his journey‚ Luke is aided by the roguish‚ sarcastic mercenary Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and his towering furry sidekick Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew) as they run into a host of perilous situations while trying to rescue the princess - and the entire galaxy.
