I watched that clip and i loved it. I would love to see the whole thing.
Lucas as the brilliant young and talented underground film maker of THX 1138.
Quite rare and interesting what year was this shot in? I assume before he started the star wars treatment in 1973.
This is probably the most interesting thing i have seen other than Lucas documentary on the making of the rain people someone posted on youtube.
I think this documentary was shown on pbs as one point. And it is so interesting based on this little clip i wonder why it has such a low rating on imdb.
I find it nice to see Lucas the genious filmaker once again. The man responsible for star wars. This is the lucas i admire and respect before he was consumed by cgi. Ironic that he talks about money men should not make decisions over art. lol.
I wonder if at that moment had he seen into the future and the prequels and jar jar. Maybe he would have stated that a bit differently. It is almost as ironic as his statement in from star wars to jedi about sets and special effects.
The Lucas who was determined to make films outside of hollywood. Who fought the big money men and corporations became the corporation.
