The original version of Star Wars. Not the way it was, but the way you remember it.
A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, George Lucas released a film which changed the face of science fiction filmmaking forever.
Journey back to 1977 with this faithful reproduction of the original version of Star Wars.
"It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire. During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Empire's ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, an armored space station with enough power to destroy an entire planet. Pursued by the Empire's sinister agents, Princess Leia races home aboard her starship, custodian of the stolen plans that can save her people and restore freedom to the galaxy...."
Using video from official DVD and laserdisc sources, the 1977 theatrical version of the film has been reproduced in high quality. CGI Special Edition elements have been eliminated, and the original opening crawl recreated. A new soundtrack has been created for this disc, based on the 1993 Definitive Collection laserdisc, reinstating lines from the original 1977 theatrical monomix.
Relive the magic with the film that started it all, the way you remember it. From the editor that brought you Deleted Magic.
