![]() “ The Making of Star Wars is perhaps the most insightful account of what it’s really like to make this kind of movie. “Combining the access of an authorized account with the edge of great storytelling, the making of a 30-year-old movie has never felt more alive.” ![]() “A book like this simply blows everything else out of the water.” - Film Review ![]() “Majestic… truly indispensable.” -– Total Film “For anyone who has the Force with them, this awesomely nerdy tome is a gift from heaven.” –- The London Times “More than just a promotional making-of book, Rinzler’s account seeks to strip away a lot of the mythology about the movie’s creation.” “These books are the acid flashback they’ve been promising us without the mess and fuss of dropping acid. This is, aside from its value to me as a piece of Star Wars history, a really well-written book, and that is almost unheard of in the behind-the-scenes publishing world.” It’s engaging, detailed, very entertaining. He writes with a clear eye, and he knows how to tell the story. is an impeccably written and researched look at the way it really happened, removed of all mythmaking, step by arduous step. This is a book I’ve always wanted, but I never realized I was missing it until I started reading. ![]() ![]() The Making of Star Wars (Random House, 2007), NY Times bestseller ![]()
