When Star Wars moved to the controlled environment of Elstree Studios in London, things didn’t get much better.
Despite all this, Star Wars turned out phenomenally well, earning a Best Picture nomination and setting box office records.
But at this time, it’s important to note that it’s rare for a Star Wars film to sail smoothly through production.
