1977ref. 9008Washington DC: American Film Institute 1977. First Edition. Original wraps. Very Good. 8 1/2 X 11 Inches. 80 PP. "I decided I wanted to make a children's movie to go the Disney route." - George Lucase page nine Original April 1977 issue of "American Film" with the Star Wars cover story. This issue published the month before the release of Star Wars contains the most intimate interview Lucas had granted to that point. It is also quite possibly the first mention he makes in print of his love of Disney and having modeled his movie after their products. Little did he know he would one day cash a $4 Billion dollar check from them. 80 pages of 1977 film nostalgia but the interview with George Lucas stands as the highlight. Six pages of Lucas discussing Star Wars while eating a hamburger the month before it was released. "There can be little doubt that Geoge Lucas has gone out on a limb. He has used the success of American Graffiti to put on film the dreams and fantasies of his childhood. He has spent $8 million in a genre where movies are usually done as cheaply as possible resulting in shoddiness. The only question left about Star Wars is an old one frequently asked since the Wright Brothers took their contraption to Kitty Hawk: "But will it fly" - Stephen Zito page 11 Hint of wear to front cover edges else a fine copy with all parts intact.
