(W) Will Brooker Will Brooker's illuminating study takes issue with many commonly held ideas about Star Wars. He provides a close cinematic analysis, carefully examining its shots, editing, sound design, cinematography, and performances. Brooker argues that Star Wars is a continuation of Lucas' experiments with sound and image, revealing Lucas's contradictory desires for the total order and control of the Empire, and, on the other hand, for the raw energy and creative improvisation of the Rebels. Though at first Star Wars seems a simple fairy tale, it becomes far more complex when we realize that the director is rooting for both sides, creating a tension that unsettles the saga as a whole and illuminates new sides of Lucas's masterpiece.
