The man manipulated the entire galaxy into a war, turned the Republic into an Empire, wiped out the Jedi, and sat on the throne for decades like it was all part of a grand master plan. Fear? That was something for everyone else. But let’s be …

Once Vader and the stormtroopers overwhelmed the Rebels on Tantive IV, most of the defenders lay dead with their hands across their faces. We may wonder why the actors hid their faces this way. There were both storytelling and filming reasons. Why Did Most …
