That's an interesting read. Especially the part about George wanting the logo to look "fascist". Some people have been saying for years the medal scene in Star Wars looks like something out of "Triumph of the Will".


Seeing how George let himself be inspired by WW2 dogfights for the space battles and (I believe) nazi uniforms for the imperials, I can understand why some attribute the medal ceremony to be inspired by nazi propaganda shots like this (still shot from "Triumph of the Will").
