I do not agree on most of the article.
However, who wrote this has some things very clear, things that are rather uncomfortable truths specially to our forum community:
-PT is (judging pure visuality) better framed and composited than ANH
-Anakin’s journey is Faustian.
-John William’s score is musically brillant, but yes, it quite underlines the moments a lot. I keep thinking of the self-undoing ball of wool Tornatore frames in Cinema Paradiso, when the protagonist comes back home after 30 years. That shot, if I remember right, has almost no music. The message is still there, but not emphatized. What whoever wrote this seemed not to know, however, is that Star Wars is designed as a myth. And yes, myths do tell people what to thing or how to feel, because they have been and still are an educational tool to every society.
-That’s why star wars is mainly audiovisual.
-That’s why no one expects a Star Wars movie to have too much dialogue about politics.
And that’s where Lucas failed.
