Star Wars (Revisited)

We missed a lot the first time around! Plus, the ending of the saga means this is the perfect time to revisit our discussion of the galaxy far, far away. We answer a few questions we had last time and look at new questions, such as:

Does Rey complete her Hero's Journey?

How did the Millennium Falcon maneuver through that asteroid field?

And just how does the Galactic Senate even work?

It’s our last LIT(erature) Summer episode and the end of Season One! We’re looking at the original 18th Century French fairy tale Beauty and the Beast and trying (unsuccessfully) to not reference Disney. We delve into other Beast and Beauty tales and the lasting impact of the story on literature, film, and culture.
