A Conversation with Marcia Lucas

[@profitprophet6418]

Nice to see Marcia talking! She is indeed, a gem!

I wish we could have heard more from her over the last 47 years. She was involved with some terrific ideas in George's biggest films and never really got the credit for it. We fans do know her contributions and love her for it.

Marica is a gem. I love listening to her talk about her career.

There's a lot of movies today could do with Marcia talent on them including Disney star wars

Instead of asking those obviously leading questions regarding her gender, I would've asked her more about her childhood, parents and family life, and what influence the 'culture' at the time had on her, because it is seems that Marcia didn't spend her time thinking of herself as oppressed. She was too busy having fun and 'doing it'. How did she get so ..... "full of beans" ? What a lovely charismatic incredibly talented firebrand. I'm so glad her story is finally coming out. It may knock George down a peg, but it really doesn't diminish his obvious greatness. I think her story humanizes him in a way that is important. What ADVENTURERS they ALL were back then !

[@racializedkanadian]

Thank for this interview btw! I had just finished watching the 'Icons Unearthed' series on Star Wars and needed more Marcia !!

[@Valkonnen]

When I hear the triumphant orchestral theme , to this day I get chills up my spine and become that ten year old boy again, who's life was changed a long time ago, in a theater far, far away...

The great Ben Burtt as well. Star Wars would not have been anything without either of them.

Marcia Lucas also has stated wasn't herself but husband George insisted on their divorce.

[@adriankaiser8602]

Had first odopted child interesting neither wife nor husband concepted twogether !? So both or either is sterile !!!! Like many couples decades later,its not a female or male but rather enviromentalisim effect why cant they just simply SAY!

[@JoshuaYoung2]

Love this but phew, 4mins of introductions. Also who did the mixing of the music versus dialogue? It's tough being an editor of 15 years and looking for a job, then I see this kind of work being done.

[@matthewgaudet4064]

Clips from the Star Wars Special Edition which she had nothing to do with. Kind of disappointing. I'm assuming Lucasfilm only allows clips to be shown of the redone version. Suppression of the original for nearly 40 years has had a negative effect. Would it kill them to release the film the same as it was shown in 1977.

[@brucewayne1662]

Yes, they showed the Special Edition because that is THE MOVIE. There are no two editions. Its just THE MOVIE. Besides, there were ZERO changes in the trench run, and the amount of frames between the added Biggs scene and the end credits is exactly the same as the earlier version.
