I went off and wrote the adaptation (and Splinter of the Mind’s Eye) on my own. George was far too busy working the film. What do you recall of those meetings?Īctually, no. You had meetings with George Lucas where you discussed the story I guess. My wife kept trying to get me to talk to the scruffy-looking guy seated behind us. My wife and I saw the final cut at a cast and crew private screening a week or so before the film appeared in theaters. I also doubted George could ever get all of it up on screen the way it was written in the script…but he did. I immediately thought the film had potential. What were your thoughts back then, did you believe this movie (and the book) had potential? You wrote the novelization of the first Star Wars movie in 1976.
