Vice TV docu-series boasts first on-camera interview with Marcia Lucas.
The new docu-series"" reminds viewers of the hurdles and challenges George Lucas overcame to get his franchise off the ground.
Coppola and Lucas were friends and were part of the American New Wave of the 1970s. Coppola served as producer on Lucas'"THX1138" and"American Graffiti." Coppola was the first of that generation of filmmakers to get a shot at a big Hollywood studio film with"The Godfather.
"Icons Unearthed" is produced and directed by Brian Volk-Weiss, who also created the shows"The Toys That Made Us" and"The Movies That Made Us." All three delightfully tap into our geeky obsession with pop culture. Although the film turned out to be a financial blockbuster, Lucas was rejected by two studios before 20Century Fox finally greenlit it. And even though Fox's Alan Ladd, Jr. approved it, he had no idea what Lucas'"space opera" was really about.Marcia Lucas, who was one of the editors on the first"Star Wars" film, is interviewed for"Icons Unearthed: Star Wars."
