While Anthony Daniels (C-3PO) is the only actor from the film, Ed Begley Jr. As with the two previous productions--Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back, Jedi is a treat for the ears--and the mind's eye. Fifteen years after the dramatic success of National Public Radio's adaptation of Star Wars, the production tea
Like its predecessors, this electrifying drama boasts a splendid cast (including Anthony Daniels as See-Threepio and Ed Asner as Jabba the Hutt), a greatly expanded script, with many scenes and characters not found in the movie, and audio engineering of unparalleled excellence.
