The Star Wars Memories author talks about working with Gary Kurtz who produced the first two Star Wars films.

"Gary not getting, I feel the credit he deserves. I mean not to take anything away from George. Of course Gary was part of the creation of star wars he worked with George on American Graffiti ut They wanted to go see a movie and this was in the early Seventies. The way you decided what movie to go back then if you look in the newspaper to see what was playing back when we still had newspapers And they look through the paper and they couldn't find anything they wanted to say And so they decided they should make a movie like they wanna see which was going to be like a science fiction adventure movie and at first they approached universal where George had an overall deal yet".
