Have you ever wondered why exactly Yoda the Jedi Master talks backwards? At the 45th Anniversary screening of The Empire Strikes Back at the TCM Classic Film Festival, Star Wars director George Lucas finally explains the reasoning for Yoda’s strange speech patterns. Lucas also discusses with Ben Mankiewicz how he was able to get THX (1971) made and how he was adamant about having licensing for the Star Wars films.
