The June issue of the Italian magazine
Amica features a clever trilogy of articles on Episode I and the
Star Wars saga in general. Structured like one long article divided in three chapters, each piece ends on a conclusion that naturally leads to its successor. The first article offers a global look at the saga, exploring how Episode I finds its rightful place within the overall story, but also paying attention to the way in which
Star Wars, as a whole, exists and grows in the sphere of storytelling and art at large. The second article glimpses at the
Star Wars phenomenon through the eyes of the many fans who had gathered in front of Mann's Chinese Theater in Los Angeles to wait together for the opening of Episode I. The third and last article focuses on the different products based on the new
Star Wars movie. This three-part feature is sprinkled with superb black-and-white photographs by Nigel Parry, who is also responsible for the magazine cover.
