Star Wars: A new hope
“A long.long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away….” These short, simple words have
influenced generations. Novices and Star Wars fans alike have enjoyed and thrived on these
inventive movies. The writer and director, George Lucas, came up with the idea during his years
at the University of California. He came up with a six part series, yet, the first movie to be
produced was part four entitled Star Wars: A new hope. It was produced in 1977 by Gary Kurtz.
Star Wars was a serious breakthrough for the marketing of Melodramatic movies. Star Wars: A
new hope is a perfect example of entertaining melodramas that has provided the basis for the
movies seen today.
Lasers guns, light sabers and a damsel in distress, each of these elements set the
stage for the action-packed adventure that is Star Wars: A new hope. The story begins as
Darth Vader attacks Princess Leia’s space ship the Tantive IV. He does this in order to
attain secret transmissions sent from rebel forces which are in Princess Leia’s possession.
Meanwhile Princess Leia’s friend, R2D2, takes t he transmissions and prepares to bring
them to Obi Wan Kenobi. After some detainment, R2D2 and C3PO find themselves
under the employment of Luke Skywalker. With the help of Obi Wan Kenobi, Han Solo
and Chewbacca, Luke Skywalker is able to save Princess Leia from certain death. Yet,
the danger isn’t over because the rebel armies need to now destroy Darth Vader’s Death
Star. Luke Skywalker successfully destroys the Death star, but Darth Vader survives to
fight another day.
It isn’t hard to picture like the way we want it to be. It is hard to accept the way like
actually is in reality. It is because of this that Melodrama is so appealing to human beings.
Melodrama is the dream or fantasy that is unattainable. In a melodrama, goodness of the world
will always conquer over evil. Through the use of conflicts and intense action, Melodrama
captivates the audience and exemplifies hope. Music in melodrama leads the emotions of the
audience, Both good and evil characters have a theme song that helps to show the importance or
relevance of a scene. Foreshadowing is also a large piece of Melodrama. Foreshadowing is
especially important to the action of Star Wars: A new hope. This is because it provides clues
and even exposition relating to the other parts of the series. Melodrama makes you laugh and cry
and momentarily forget that its only a movie. For the most part, this can be easy to forget,
especially with all the glamour and appeal melodrama gives off.
In every melodrama there is a hero and in every movie there is an impressive actor that
surprises the audience with their abilities. In Star Wars: A new hope, the person is Mark Hamill.
