Dr Rebecca Harrison is a lecturer in the Theatre, Film and Television Studies department at the University of Glasgow.

Becca talks about The Empire Strikes Back, the writing and production of it, examining the subtexts and mainstream representations both existing and hinted at, and more about the archives & historical artifacts that tell the story about making the story, and so much more.

and yes, if you want to hear more Star Wars talk, don’t miss the session from a couple months ago (both on audio and video)!
