Just saw “A Disturbance in the Force”, a documentary about the Star Wars Holiday Special. I was already familiar with it—I’d seen the special, the special with MST3k (or RiffTrax?) commentary, and IIRC some documentary on it a decade ago.

This one was pretty good. Lots of stuff I already knew, but still plenty new background info, more context on the TV scene in the 70s, and new interviews with some of the creators and modern pop critics.

For sure worth a watch if you’re into some coke-fueled Star Wars nonsense
