After seeing Star Wars in '77, I spent the rest of the summer looking/listening for anything SW-related. TV commercials, magazine articles, even this.
Not just Star Wars, though. Being 11 years old, I also had the obligatory crush on Kristy McNichol.
What a summer!
Exactly how I felt. Other movies had some merchandising tie-ins, but never to the extent of Star Wars. From my pre-teen perspective, the experience of that movie coupled with a memorable soundtrack was just amazing and blew both the young and old viewers out of the water. I mean, even Bill Murray’s Lounge Singer skit on SNL did a send up of the music.
Phrasing?
