'STAR WARS' AT 40: DEATH STAR DEPARTURE!


With Obi-Wan Kenobi's mission to deactivate the tractor beam a success, the Millennium Falcon and its occupants make their swift getaway from the Death Star, in this lovely and detailed effects shot, showing what looks like the night side of the battle station.

It's hard to believe now, but, had Twentieth Century Fox execs had their way (having been so unhappy in funding the film in the first place), the rescue of the Princess at this stage in the storytelling would have been the end of the film, with no finale audience-satisfying space/trench battle!
