The People vs George Lucas

Slated for release in 2010, The People vs George Lucas delves into the impassioned feelings and opinions expressed by fans and foes of legendary screen icon George Lucas, and the many debates surrounding his legacy.

Revered by some, demonized by others, George Lucas is undoubtedly the most talked about and criticised filmmaker in movie history.

Why have so many Star Wars fans turned against him to decry the release of the Special Editions and the Prequel Trilogy? Why is George Lucas the constant target of bloggers, critics and self proclaimed devotees? And why are millions of others staunchly prepared to defend him in the face of innumerable accusations?

The People vs George Lucas aims to answer these questions, and to impartially deconstruct the cultural legacy of a man whose life, feelings and creative impulses remain largely shrouded in mystery.

Paying tribute ot the YouTube culture in unprecedented fashion, this groundbreaking documentary feature will utilize professional hi-def footage and amateur homemade videos in equal amounts to craft one of the most anticipated portraits in the history of the medium - the world's first digitally democratic documentary.
