Empire Strikes Back - Star Wars Episode V —
Probably the best of all the Star Wars movies, The Empire Strikes Back stands as one of the finest cinematic moments in history. Special effects not withstanding, the emotional impact really drives home this quest everyone goes on to discover their identity; the challenges we all face, the discoveries, and finding out certain things we don't like at all. The original 1980 movie poster hinted at thhe romance of Han Solo and Princess Leia with a very Gone With The Wind pose. Opening on an ice planet, the settings seem to tie right into the emotions of the characters. Princess Leia is cold toward Han. Later, her emotions are more scattered while they hide in the asteroid field. Luke, on the mysterious swamp planet encounters and learns about the mysterious. Cold and uncaring is the industrial set where Luke has a showdown with Darth Vader. Truely wonderous cinematic moment s aren't lost in this movie. The exciting battle with the snow walkers might put someone in mind of futuristic prehistoric beasts. The hair raising thrill ride of the asteroid field is pulse pounding. Who wouldn't believe in the power of The Force when Yoda raises Luke's X-Wing from the swamp water? Dark and scarey are the duel sequences where Luke faces off with his greatest foe and then discovers his family's darkest secret. The movie's twin cliffhanger is classic. What will become of a frozen Han solo? Is Darth Vader really Luke's father? In 1980, the wait for Return Of The Jedi was a three year eternity. I don't know how many times I've watched this movie over the years. I certainly could recite it! Whether or not you're a Star Wars fan, this is one of the greatest movies ever made.
