Once again I have to say it: Mark Steyn rocks!

It goes without saying that his review of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith is a must read. He is now the new leader in my little contest for the coveted “I Wish I Had Written That Award”.

Enjoy:

Lucas is truly one of the all-time worst directors of actors, and I include the teacher who put together the school production of Fiddler on the Roof I saw last week and got a more touching love scene out of a couple of 11-year-olds as the middle-aged Tevye and Golde than anything Christensen and Portman manage here. Presumably actors say yes to Lucas because they figure Star Wars will do for them what it did for Harrison Ford. Instead, Lucas turns everyone he touches into Mark Hamill. [emphasis mine]

One day, I shall be half as witty…one day…
