Oh, come on! I love Star Wars a huge amount but "broad" and "deep" it is not. It's very simple storytelling done in a very good way.
Well I won't discuss "deep" because that is entirely up to opinion. But as for "broad", it is certainly is. OT deals with human nature, war, mythology, romance, growing up, militarism, politics, crime, etc. There is pretty much everything from the modern and past world projected through a fairytale into a galaxy far far away.
