Elstree 1976 – Official Trailer #1 – Star Wars Documentary

elstree-1976 Elstree 1976 – the taglin sums this up perfectly: “Behind the masks. Beneath the helmets. Big people. Small roles.”

In this documentary, actors and extras reminisce about their time on the set of the original Star Wars movie and how making the film affected their lives.

Written and directed by Jon Spira, this 90-minute Kickstarter-funded documentary, attracting £42,191 in funding, features Jeremy Bulloch (Boba Fett), David Prowse (Darth Vader) and more including Paul Blake, John Chapman, Anthony Forrest, Laurie Goode, Garrick Hagon, Derek Lyons, Angus MacInnes and Pam Rose.

It looks interesting, but has had mixed reviews. with Screen Daily saying “It offers a slice of enjoyable nostalgia”, while The Hollywood Reporter has said “for anyone expecting a definitive behind-the-scenes film about the making of Star Wars, this is not the documentary you have been looking for.”

However, it’s just a 90-minute documentary so it won’t take up too much time if it’s not brilliant.
