A strange alien doctor stands near the unconscious body of Padme Amidala. “It appears she has lost the will to live.” A older man with a limp hobbles closer with the aid of a cane. “That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard,” says Dr. Gregory House.

“There is a wound that won’t heal at the centre of the galaxy. There is a darkness reaching like rust into everything around us. We let it grow and now it’s here. It’s here, and it’s not visiting anymore.”

‘nother bit of rambling while I go through my reference folder for the right head angle/facial expression:

I love the cinematography in this movie because this–

– this isn’t a kiss. But it’s filmed like one.

There’s even the daring come closer look.

the bashful indraw of breath, courage not quite found yet

The characters dance around each other, they’re intent on each other, there’s the tilting of heads. But rather than falling to romantic cliches, rather than falling to the Before The Last Battle Kiss, it sticks to what is so them: the orbiting, the equality, the balance.

much like how when Cassian nearly DOES kiss her on their way to Scarif, instead of having the camera move in so we see what he sees, the smile he’s enamoured by, we instead just get that little pause, the lean-in, and then the flustered turn to the people watching them and the rushed list of orders falling from his lips

Because they are leaders, leading people to their deaths and there’s no time to show weakness, no time to show them that Cassian is changing from someone who’s cool under fire and never lets himself slip-up. Because they need to respect Jyn, even though she was never really apart of them, only the fire of rebellious inspiration. Only the will that drives them all forwards.

And again it’s like that scene from Scarif (that I don’t have a screenshot of) but that keeps haunting me, because it’s shot in silhouette, and they’re undressing each other, and Cassian is helping her take off her top. But of course, it’s not actually a sex scene, because, again there’s no time, and they’re wearing their Alliance uniforms under the clothes they’re taking off.

But it’s still there. The cinematographers made space for it to happen. Maybe not in the strictest sense. Because there’s no time and they’re on a suicide mission, and love is something that happens in the passion of shared looks, and shard words, and an orbiting dance of stars.

But it’s still there.

Happy 75th Birthday Denis Lawson born September 27, 1947 in Glasgow. and Kinross Star Wars connections here, Lawson’s nephew is, of course, Ewan McGregor, who portrayed Obi-Wan Kenobi in the prequel trilogy.and he was also an early drama school classmate of Ian McDiarmid, aka Emperor Palpatine in movie franchise.

Lawson t grew up in Crieff, Perthshire, after his family moved there when he was three years old. He is the son of Phyllis Neno, a merchant, and Laurence Lawson, a watchmaker Denis was educated at Crieff Primary School (then called Crieff Public School). After the 11-plus examination, he attended Morrison’s Academy as a day pupil before attending the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama, having first unsuccessfully auditioned for the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London. He then sold carpets and did amateur theatre work for a year in Dundee before auditioning again at RADA in London and successfully at RSAMD in Glasgow.

Lawson began his acting career with a small role in a 1969 stage production of The Metamorphosis in London’s West End. and has since starred in television dramas such as The Merchant of Venice  opposite Laurence Olivier as Shylock, Rock Follies and Dead Head.

Denis has been in too many other TV shows to mention, from the original Dr. Finlay’s Casebook and of course with almost every other Scottish actor he has starred in a Bill Forsyth film, his being Local Hero, but unusually he has never been in Taggart, his last film role of note was in the Glasgow Gangster film, The Wee Man, Denis was in 61 episodes of the long running hospital drama, Holby City as consultant cardiothoracic surgeon Tom Campbell-Gore and 37 episodes of the crime drama New Tricks. In 2017 he played The Duke of Atholl in the series Victoria.

In Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope his voice was dubbed by David Ankrum. He reprised the role, in voice-over form, in the Nintendo GameCube game Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader. Lawson’s voice also provided the narration for the audio book of Heir to the Empire and Dark Force Rising in both novels, he reprised his role as Wedge Antilles as well as playing all characters.

Lawson turned down Lucas’s proposal to make a cameo as Raymus Antilles in Revenge of the Sith.

Lawson was approached to return for Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, but declined, stating that it “just would have bored [him].”he did however resurface in The Rise of Skywalker and voiced  Wedge Antilles  in the Video game Star Wars: Squadrons

Denis has been quiet for onscreen roles lately, but he has been treading the boards, his last show was  Anything Goes at the Festival Theatre in Edinburgh last spring. 

​No stranger to Edinburgh, it was here that Lawson spent some of the formative years of his career working at both the Royal Lyceum and old Traverse in the Grassmarket, where he trained with the legendary dancer, actor, teacher, mime artist, and choreographer, Lindsay Kemp.

His childhood heroes were silver screen stars like Danny Kaye, Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire.“American Vaudeville kind of people,” he clarifies, “That’s what made me want to perform. I wanted to be like them and Anything Goes is that ‘front-cloth’ vaudevillian-style show and I just love it. It’s fantastic - musical theatre has always been a strong part of my career.“

So strong, if fact, he won an Olivier Award for his performance as Jim Lancaster in the musical, Mr Cinders.

On his nephew, Ewan, Denis has clarified the line that he tried to talk MacGregor out of the Star Wars role of Obi-Wan Kenobi, saying;

“Ewan likes to say that, but it wasn’t like that at all. He was young at the time and it’s easy in this profession to get pigeon-holed, so all I said to him was to just be careful. To make sure he really wanted to do it. It was great that he did it and ignored ‘my advice’ and he was fantastic in it. He is an amazing talent.”

It’s Lawson we have to thank for encouraging that talent and he remembers, "My sister Carol came to me and said that Ewan, who was eight at the time, had something to tell me. He stood in front of me very seriously and said, 'I want to be an actor.’ And I said, ‘Fine, well come back to me in a few years and we will discuss it’. As with me, it never went away and I am immensely proud of what he has done.”
