He earnestly explored what Star Wars saga meant, descended down into his own depth, dug further down as an artist—the film exuded his wholehearted passion. Perhaps because Episode 8 and Solo weren’t so well-received, he may have felt as though he had his back to the wall. When, at the world premier, JJ got up on stage with Disney’s Bob Iger and the producer Kathleen Kennedy, he inflated both his cheeks and exhaled deep, as if to calm himself down. I swallowed hard, seeing how even JJ could get nervous. This was the true, big stage! The two producers and JJ made sure to praise George Lucas in their speeches, setting a very humble mood. JJ also expressed his gratitude to Steven Spielberg; I could sense that the moment of truth for that entire generation was imminent, and felt electrified with anticipation. Then, at JJ’s invitation, John Williams walked on to the stage! There was a standing ovation! He was followed by the C3PO actor Anthony Daniels and other main casts. There was another standing ovation when, at the end, Mark Hamill joined. In this warmest, most loving of atmospheres—you can’t expect a better environment in which to watch Star Wars—the film started with the iconically dramatic music. Rey and Kylo Ren’s earnest portrayals were beyond passionate, almost uncharacteristically so for Star Wars, and the emotional threads were exquisitely woven throughout the film toward the final scenes. Adam Driver, who had up to now seemed somewhat ill-fitting in the world of Star Wars, has completely overturned such an impression and assimilated into the world now. I can only imagine what a challenge it must have been for Daisy Ridley, who took on the role of Ren, but there were so many superb moments! Those nuanced expressions! And I laughed out loud at the quintessentially Star Wars jokes that studded the film throughout. I laughed a lot in fact! John Williams’s score this time was all wonderful as well. 👉 Continue 👉」12月18日 3時25分
