A Disturbance in the Force: How the Star Wars Holiday Special Happened(2023)

A long time ago, in a part of the galaxy that George Lucas would like us to forget...

A Disturbance in the Force: How the Star Wars Holiday Special Happened is a documentary that explores one of television's most infamous misfires. In 1978, CBS broadcast the Star Wars Holiday Special to 13 million viewers the week before Thanksgiving, only to have it vanish into obscurity after a single airing. George Lucas famously disowned the special, yet it became a cult curiosity that has haunted Star Wars lore for decades. The film examines how this bizarre spin-off came to exist, tracing the creative decisions and behind-the-scenes chaos that produced such a notorious oddity. Through interviews and archival footage, it uncovers the unlikely story of how a major network and a legendary filmmaker created something so strange it became legend.
