George Lucas: the creative impulse : Lucasfilm's first twenty-five years | Charles Champlin
This revised and updated edition of an Abrams classic brings the story of this remarkable man and his empire up to the present. Every significant film that Lucas has created, shaped, or directly influenced is discussed and illustrated, including the making of 1997's Special Edition of the Star Wars Trilogy. The amazing expansion of his company, with its trailblazing special-effects division, Industrial Light and Magic (whose credits include work on more than one hundred feature films, including ET and Jurassic Park), as well as the enormously successful electronic games, home theater, and licensing divisions, is also covered, along with developments at his legendary headquarters, Skywalker Ranch. As with the first edition, George Lucas has given author Charles Champlin his full cooperation in preparing this updated volume.
