The phenomenon written of, of false pictures being taken of true events, is a trend that I expect to diminish as technology advances and becomes more widespread. Despite what Clark Kent and Peter Parker would have you believe, it is simply not possible for news people to get lucky enough to be on the scene at every major event. The odds of Rosa Parks having one on her bus, for example, are quite slim. On the other hand, if the same thing happened today, there would be fifteen idiots with camera phones shooting away. Quite simply, we won't need to fake the picture, because everything is recorded in this era.
Also, the critic who saw C-3p0 being trusted with plans to the Death Star watched a different version of Star Wars than I did.

ReplyDeleteI noticed that as well. For someone who claims to be a fan of Star Wars, Ebert has distorted a rather crucial detail there.
