SW.com Archive: Irvin Kershner Talks ESB

Posted By TFN on February 2, 2010

In celebration of the on-going 30th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back, StarWars.com has posted an archived article originally from 1990 that features Dan Madsen sitting down for an interview with "Kersh".

See the intro below and then click HERE for the full article.

"A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, director Irvin Kershner visited the mist-enshrouded swampy planet of Dagobah and the frozen, wind-whipped snowy world of Hoth. He guided Yoda in the ways of the Force, brought Luke, Han and Leia together on the planet Bespin, and arranged for Darth Vader and bounty hunter Boba Fett to carbon-freeze Han Solo for his trip back to Jabba the Hutt.

Although these events took place well over 10 years ago, Irvin Kershner recalls them as if they were yesterday. "The memory is a very vivid one," he says, "because the people were so important to me and I like them all so much." As director of the second chapter in the Star Wars saga, The Empire Strikes Back, Kershner worked closely with George Lucas to insure that the continuity between the first film and the second remained intact while also adding his own special touch to the universe that Luke Skywalker lives in."
