AN 'EMPIRE' AT 40: A MESSY ARRIVAL!

Continuity polaroid of Hamill and a dirtied Artoo taken between filming.

With a wrecked and muddy Artoo having been jettisoned from the Dragonsnake creature - metal clearly not to its appetites, Luke rushes to his friend's aide. Coming to Dagobah may indeed prove a bad mistake for the duo.

Soon to be the only actor listed on the studio filming call sheet for the next few months, Mark Hamill would endure the tough filming on the Dagobah soundstage with great patience and humour, despite some trying times and a sometimes underlying tense relationship with his director.




Hamill and Artoo in between takes.

Conferring with Kershner and also Gary Kurtz on the 'bog planet' set.
