S3E169 -Cinema Alchemist ft. Roger Christian

Cinema Alchemist

Hollywood Icon and Academy Award Winner, Roger Christian, joins us to talk about his work on Star Wars A New Hope, Return of the Jedi and The Phantom Menace. We talk about his work on Alien, Monty Python's Life of Brian, and his directorial work on Battlefield Earth.
Roger is the reason why Luke lightsaber hilt is made from a camera flash handle, why we have blue milk and why we see many of the things we see in the original views of Tatooine as we do in the 1977 release of Star Wars.
Roger has a documentary about this time called "Galaxy Built on Hope" that traces his journey through Star Wars and working with George Lucas. Its a great documentary that should be a must watch for all Star Wars fans.
Also consider reading his book - Cinema Alchemist.
