With visual effects and a compelling plot far beyond its day, it pushed the film industry to become more innovative, resulting in the multimillion dollar blockbusters we are so accustomed to today. Where did it all begin? Was it the genius of George Lucas alone or did he receive some help along the way? The answer is a combination of…
