Signed George Lucas: "Even though everyone thought I was nuts!"
A Long Time Ago, In a Galaxy Far Far Away.... The beginning of the largest franchise in film history, the largest grossing movie of all time when it was released and a movie that swept the 1978 Academy Awards with 11 nominations and 7 Academy Awards. A movie that almost wasn't made. This spectacular piece is brought to life by this 11x16 photo of George Lucas, from 1976, talking to C-3P0 on set, in the deserts of Tunisia, and is so beautifully perfect as it speaks to why people might have thought George was insane for making this movie. At the top of the photo reads a very fitting quote from George as he described the difficulties of finding success in life. "I had the feeling I should go to film school, even though everyone thought I was nuts. I had the same feeling when I decided to make Star Wars, when even my friends told me I was crazy. These are just things that had to be done, and I felt as if I had to do them." -George Lucas To the left off the photo, as if floating above,
