First of all,i would like to say I'm a big fan of Star Wars and I watched most of the movies of it except the one that we watched yesterday and the one after it i guess. So it was the first time I saw "A New Hope" and it was really good.
The character I focus the most was actually the Lord Darth Vader. In my point of view, I reckon he is the whole point of the movie cause he was sucha important character. In the movie we saw yesterday,he didn't talk much. Every time he appears on the screen was about destroying and killing people. So he looked like fully bad person.
Well, I really could think of any characters from another movie to relate to him. But I just love this character so much,so I'm going to continue talking about him and how he had became Darth Vader.
Darth Vader was known as Anakin Skywalker who was a Jedi and the chosen one. But he started to listen to the Darth Sidious since he wanted to save Padmé who was his wife. Anakin fell to the dark side. Before he turned into Darth Vader, he had a final battle with his own master Obi-Wan.
This is also one of the favorite battles of mine in Star Wars.
As you can see from the video,Obi-Wan had cut his legs off and left him burn to die.But Darth Sidious had saved him and made him become Darth Vader, the scene that the mask put onto Anakin and he started breathing was so cool! haha
From what I have seen from the last movie of Star Wars, Anakin/Darth Vader saved his son Luke Skywalker from dangerous and killed Darth Silious. I could clearly see that even though he joined to the dark side, he was a good person by saving his son. And even when he follow Darth Sildious, he was trying to get him to save his wife Padmé.
And this is how this character attracts me and how important he was because he was the main character that links up the whole 7 movies together.

Hi Bernard,
ReplyDeleteWhat you've done here is describe plot. That's not what I'm interested in. I'm interested in the qualities of character. It's funny you say you can't think of anyone that Darth Vader relates to in other movies. And yet he is the super villain! So he's the villain in every movie! It doesn't matter what they look like -whether they are Alien or the Wicked Witch in the Wizard of Oz, they represent "evil" (and funnily enough, they usually wear black, like all the bad guys in Western movies). So I think you have missed an opportunity here to look at how we represent "evil" in movies. Just talking about the way he is dressed, that his face looks like a skull, that he wears black robes, the way he walks, talks, the music that is played when he is on screen - all of this would have strengthened this post.
