FILM THEORY & CRITICISM. Is Yoda a Zen Master? Is the story of Luke Skywalker a spiritual epic? The answers, as well as excitement, adventure, and a lot of fun, are here! This revised and expanded edition of "The Dharma of Star Wars" uses George Lucas' beloved modern saga and the wise words of the Buddha to illuminate each other in playful and unexpectedly rewarding ways. Matthew Bortolin writes an inspiring and totally new take on this timeless saga, from "A New Hope" through "Revenge of the Sith" and television's "Clone Wars." Great fun for any "Star Wars" fan. Includes instruction in "The Jedi Art of Mindfulness and Concentration" and "The Padawan Handbook: Zen Contemplations for the Would-Be Jedi."
