Last April (2016) when I made my inaugural trip to the Artemis Film Festival, I came in contact with the works of a filmmaker that greatly intrigued me--Jill Morley. Although I didn't meet her nor screen her work at the festival, I have discovered that if Artemis promotes a filmmaker, it is worth my while to investigate the person. And that is exactly what I did.

Abrams is no stranger to the Star Wars franchise. He previously directed the first Star Wars film in the current trilogy

In Chapter 1, Taylor mentions “Lucas has never been shy about referring to Flash Gordon as the most direct and prominent inspiration for Star Wars. “The original Universal serial was on TV at 6:15 pm every day, and I was just crazy about it,” Lucas said after shooting Star Wars in 1976. “I’ve always had a fascination for space adventure, romantic adventures” (Taylor, C). This statement from George Lucas leads me to believe he took his fascinations

Starting its first movie 1977, Star Wars created a phenomenon across the US due to its originality in storytelling and amazing works in special effects.
