AN 'EMPIRE' AT 40: DOOM-LADEN PROCESSION!

 


Hiding away, Luke watches a mysterious, clearly dangerous stranger and his escort, and soon decides to follow them... 

Is it possible that Luke recognises Boba Fett from their earlier animated encounter showcased in The Star Wars Holiday Special?

The scene has clever use of music by John Williams creating a sombre funeral march to accompany Fett and his carbonite escort on their way to Slave 1. Also, note in the long shot how Fett (walking with the sound of cowboy spurs added on in post production by Ben Burtt) turns his head after hearing the minutest sound of Luke unclipping his blaster - a clever visual touch.








Filming Luke's reactions...
