#StarWars #ANewHope #AlecGuinness
Remember kids, Sir Alec Guinness said hello there first.
Ewan said it better
I don't understand the need to compare two different things, each one is unique in its own context, liking one doesn't discredit the merit of the other
@@spiderman4538 I don’t think you could even get Ewen to agree with that sentiment. He’s quite humble when asked about his Obi Wan compared to Alec’s.
@@donnyd7206 Nah
Can't we just agree both are great?
Obi Wan's face going from neighborly curiosity to grave seriousness in a moment is amazing acting. You just don't get that quality from anywhere else.
This is what only the few world-class actors can bring to the table; Sir Alec Guiness is one of them.
At the same time Skywalkers expressions don't change whatsoever
what time in the clip?
He will always be George Smiley!
That’s a great point I remember seeing that in the theater he really didn’t know what was going on and then when he saw princess layers a grown-up it was it was time and he was willing to go to war but boy what a sad life I’ll buy himself and I’ll tell you one thing is mind blowing that universal did not pick the script up. He just did a great movie American graffiti you knew he was talented and then universal had a fantastic smash hit with Jaws and they had a great script. They were working out smoking the bandit so even if the $11.8 million budget and the movies are complete . OK you got tax right off and you tried. I don’t understand why you wouldn’t try. Wasn’t like he was unknown. He had a great movie and like I said you had a big hit on a $10 million investment with jaws I would’ve given it a shot. I just would’ve asked how he’s gonna make it look realistic, but look at this Tunisia look at the mountains. This does look like a whole different planet , really filmed in such a perfect place. I mean I saw this is a year old and I was mystify when I walk out of that theater mystified and still a huge fan of 57.
Man, that music queuing in at 2:40 after Ben hears the name "Obi-Wan." Chills every time.
The legendary John Williams
💯💯💯!!
“So it begins”
Tear-inducing.
After many years the day finally came when everything would change.
The Star Wars I grew up on. You can't beat this.
It's AWESOME.
Whwn I watch these clips I can still summon the feeling I had in the theatre watching it for the first time. I know how you feel.
@@davewanamaker3690 So much fun going to the movies back then.
Same! I refuse to acknowledge any others in the series. Just this single story where nobody is related and "Darth" is his first name instead of a title.
ok boomer
The two things that absolutely made Star Wars, John Williams music and Sir Alec Guinness.
Don't forget - Peter Cushing (Grand Moff Tarkin)
I can't imagine anyone else playing Obi Wan except Sir Alec
John Williams....🤔
Toto's frontman and Simba's father...
Yes...of course ✍️ it makes sense...who else could be better!
I showed my wife this after watching episode III explaining it was 19 years later, .. when Ben took off his hood her reaction was priceless!!!

@@grandmasterg8572 No, it doesn't lol.
@@jk22222sd that was a joke
They should've made Obi-Wan older in the prequels, instead of a padawan in Episode I. He should've already been a master in Ep 1 to match up the timelines better. But Lucas didn't want to blame Obi-Wan...for picking Anakin, so thus Qui-Gon had to be added to the script as the master.
@@MGillDesign 😕? Uhh.
These scenes are magical. New episodes can't get anywhere near.
Cry more.
@@jackdubz4247 For your a$$?
@@jackdubz4247 New sequels sucked. Cry more.
@@jackdubz4247 Disney fan boy.
Amongs all the OT Movies, this one looks the most dated.
Alec Guinness Acting Masterclass. He was giving a handful of lines to explain a vague character backstory and story arc and is so convincing, many decades later you're still appreciating his talent and skill.
He was vermin, actually. When little children approached to meet him he was nasty to them. Very unpleasant individual.
It’s amazing how they built years of story based off of what little Alec Guinness does and and says in this movie
It was called episode 4 for a reason
That "little" was legendary done by a legend.
Gosh look at how much better this looks with actual costumes and sets and not everything being made in a computer. Night and Day.
You're so right.
All luke ever did was whine complain n hide.
Guinnness's performance is amazing. His beautiful voice.
Amazing to think that he actually hated these movies :D If I recall right he hated the script, the plot and pretty much everything, but yet he delivered an amazing performance as a professional actor should.
Any clip from A New Hope or Raiders of the Lost Ark instantly takes me back to some better days.
Luke to Vader: He told me you killed him!
Vader: Well of course I killed him! He’s me!
Vader : You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker, I did
Also Vader : No Luke, I am your father
Great great actor Sir Alec Guinness
I love how Obi-Wan looks at R2-D2 in a sense like "never thought I'd see your ass again" lol
And I am sure he was wondering what the hell was about to happen because R2 was always in the middle of something.
This and Empire Strikes Back ( saw it in the cinema 1980) are the best two films in the whole franchise. The end.
Have you seen Andor? It's phenomenal! It's old school Star Wars.
I saw that movie with my dad as a kid. I never imagined that 40 years later the Star Wars franchise was going to be bigger than ever.
I thought that I read somewhere online that even George Lucas himself was anticipating that Star Wars: A New Hope would be a box-office bomb, actually, back in 1977.
@@gregholman2431 that's correct. They were so surprised with how the initial screenings went, that they offered some of the actors more money.
@@gregholman2431
George Lucas bet 2% of Star Wars against 2% of Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
Spielberg knew Star Wars would do good box office.
Look at that look he gives Artoo on the sly. Alec Guiness couldn't have known, but man what a difference it makes.
The music so incredibly carries this scene. It secretly tells us this moment is far more important then it seems.
The music carriers a lot in this first film. The film is about 15 or so minutes in before there is any real dialogue exchange. It's great!
This simple scene with basic props, a few actors on location, and meaningful plot-centered dialogue is miles ahead in quality over the prequel and sequel trilogies.
There is a simple human warmth and realism to it. The first two of the original trilogy are by far the best-and that was more than 40 years ago.
one of the most Iconic scenes in cinema history. Guiness's reaction to the name. His response, the music..... cast the dye for so much imagination and fascination in the Lore of a tail not yet told. that captivated an audience. Amazing story telling
there is a layer of horror in the first three StarWars that evaded its later filmmakers. also Alec Guinness was absolutely a superb balance to the whole thing.
The more I see this more I applaud Ewan McGregor. He really tries hard to match Alec's accent.
It’s not the accent. Ewan does the accent perfectly. It’s the voice. Harrison and Mark Hamill have basically the same accent, but their voices are different.
Alec has a distinct voice, not accent. And tbh, one could argue that, given the fact Alec is English, he doesn’t have an accent. But I refute that by saying it’s impossible to not have an accent, as there are many many many English accents.
American accents on the other hand, for some ridiculous reason, Americans think they don’t and or can’t have accents 😂😂
If you say ‘pawstaw wid tomaydo sauce’ then yes, you clearly have a thick US accent.
@@burn8325 You just wrote a whole lot of nothing, thanks
its as if ewan mcgregor is an actor, weird!
@@burn8325 - Ewan is Scots
born 66 and having been to the movies with my mom only once in a lifetime (77) . . . . this movie . . yeah it changed my life somehow !
"Now thats a name I've not heard in about 9 years"
My theory on why Obi-Wan ages so quickly in 7 years -- from Obi-Wan Kenobi to Rebels -- is because he was in a world between worlds for 10 years in which he ages, but only a few years pass elsewhere. Therefore, he hasn't heard his real name in 19 years.
It's annoying people say that's the retcon when the actual line they should say is "since oh before you were born."
9 years, spoiler alert, *is a long time* for a species that very RARELY lives to see a full century.
Like at least meme the correct lie.
@@UltimaKeyMaster plus WHO on tatootine called him obiwan ill wait
For most of his life after the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan went by the name Ben, a 10-year gap between that is still a long time, and add another 9 years is again a long time.
@@UltimaKeyMaster They have interstellar travel, robots, lightsabers but cannot extend their lives beyond 100?
I love his acting saying 'not yet'
One of those movies where if you stumble upon a scene on internet, video, etc., you always watch it.
2:33 - Dunno what you guys think but even though the story for 1-3 wasn't really written at that point it really looks like Ben recognizes R2..
same thougt
He knew r2, he felt the familiar force hence he saw r2 from a far and greated hello there,, also he treat him as a friend, and "not his own droid or a master of any droid"..
I feel as though George Lucas had a ‘general’ plan for the backstory. He could establish that they have a relationship in the 70’s and then expand upon it in the sequels. Its like how Alec Guinness shows his PTSD to luke when he tells him about his father, none of the actors knew the details but Guinness’ reaction matches the context. He was probably told by lucas to “display pain” or that he had history with Vader. Phenomenal acting, wish i could have met him, unfortunately i am too young. I believe Alec tapped into his memories of WW2 for this acting, which only makes me respect him more. Im sure he has thousands for tales and stories from throughout his life.
@@lucasrhys0363 well of course he had a history with Vader. He mentions in his story, that Vader was his old apprentice. A pupil. Even if Vader wasn't Luke's father, it would still be painful for Obi-Wan since the story of Vader being his pupil is still consistent and there's a sense of pain and failure in seeing someone you loved, and whom you taught, become a monster. That's always been consistent in Obi-Wan's explanation of Vader I think. It's the one thing that's just so true, Obi-Wan couldn't lie about it even if he wanted to...
Also, good point on Guinness possibly tapping into WW2 memories... War can turn men into monsters and even the way Vader was described in the 4th book. He was a cynical veteran who served his master, while Obi-Wan was a cynical veteran who saw everything fall apart, people he once loved either die or turn into worse versions of themselves.
@@lucasrhys0363 Plus later on in the film during their duel, Obi Wan says “Only a master of evil Darth” as if to say that Darth is his first name rather than a title of the Sith lol. I think things were definitely ironed out as the series continued beyond A New Hope.
So glad I was a kid when these came out…
The whole Krayt Dragon thing makes so much more sense now after seeing mando even kenobi putting his hood up and using the point to mimick the dorsal fins. It makes the tuskens look much more threatening and less like bumbling idiots as the dragon is such a real threat to them.
MANY, MANY REASONS WHY THE ORIGINAL TRILOGY IS FAR SUPERIOR TO WHAT HAS FOLLOWED. ONE OF THEM IS THEY HAD BETTER ACTORS. ALEC GUINESS WAS THE PERFECT ACTOR TO PLAY OBI WAN. MARK HAMILL HAS ALWAYS BEEN UNDERRATED AS WELL.
I can only imagine what the reaction in the theater was like when Obi-Wan reveals himself and people see Sir Alec Guinness. I heard he was a legendary actor. He was the original Obi-Wan who said “Hello There” first.
There were two old people sitting in front of me and I distinctly remember their reaction. "That's Alec Guinness!" I didn't know who they were talking about but I could tell he was special to them.
The way Luke recognises Obi-Wan makes it soiund like he has met Obi-Wan a few times since the meeting as small boy in the Disney+ series.
The scene reminds me of Merlin saving King Arthur...well before he becomes King anyway. There's something Arthurian about the scene. Obi-Wan reminds me of the wise wizard Merlin and Luke remind me of the Once and Future King.
H3 did a f3w y3ars or shall i say s3asons ago? In th3 Radio Drama Luk3 t3lls 3PO how Obi WAn sav3d him and Windy
Alec Guinness was nominated for an Oscar for his performance in this film!
It's the only time (to date) that someone received an Oscar nomination for acting in a "Star Wars" film.
the 3 originals are way beyond its time. It why I love star wars
Alec Guiness: Genuine Class
Here is a ball. You can bounce it.
I love the concern on Ben's face once he realizes Luke is involved with R2 or a space droid. He goes from neighbiuring and curious to serious and protective in a second, because he is concerned about Luke. Amazing acting!
It's incredible that this movie was filmed over 45 years ago...
Amazing.. This movie is created at 1977..
Yes?
Actually it was filmed from 1973 - 1977. Four years. Saw it as a boy of 12 in the cinema. Still gives me goosebumps.
@@pixel3042 Yes, released in 1977. Started filming in 1974.
@@KittenGoneBad Filming took place in 1976. The entire process of making the movie started in '74. Including script rewrites, forming Industrial Light & Magic, design and build models etc.
@@gregorybird4408 actually they started thinking about the movie in 1971
I was 9 yrs old when this classic movie came out in 1977.
Sir Alec Guiness - we miss You !
The sand people look and sound is incredible. Unbelievable imagination.
1:16- I never noticed that marking on the rock on the far right of the screen until now!
This is the last time you see Luke's macrobinoculars, likely either wrecked like his blaster rifle, or the Tuskens took them. Worked out ok though, because it freed up his belt hook to carry his new lightsaber. :) It, a poncho, & the clothes on his back were all he left Tatooine with, not much to remember the only life he'd ever known.
This is where Luke Skywalker’s training to be a Jedi began.
Man, when I was much, much younger, the first time I saw A New Hope and Obi-Wan, in this scene and then through out the original Star Wars Trilogy, (I was even really pissed at Vader for killing him), he was just the coolest guide Luke could have and I remember the older people saying, well if such a well established good actor like (Sir) Alec Guinness is in it, it must be a good movie... well that didn't mean anything at the time but now that I've had a chance (or an interest in) seeing some of those old classic movies he was in, I finally understand what a great actor he really was and how much he added to the original trilogy... even though Ewan McGregor, has done a good job and has played Obi-Wan Kenobi far more... to me... I still believe and think of Alec Guinness as the real Obi-Wan... and as Ewan McGregor continues to age, gaining more experience and playing Obi-Wan's part, he'll eventually turn into Alec Guinness... lol
1:47 "Hello there"
Sir Alec doesn’t do a very good Ewen McGregor impersonation. It’s like he didn’t even bother watching episodes 1-3
You're just not funny, are you?
Guinness channelling here his performance in _The Last Ten Days._
R2: detects life forms approaching from the southeast
Luke: excitedly grabs his rifle "sand people let's go!"
All you fans of Alec Guinness should watch some of his old movies, such as, The Man In The White Suit and Kind Hearts abd Coronets.
The Force must’ve been strong with That Sandperson. He defeated the greatest Jedi in the galaxy.
But, he DID have the high ground.
Makes you wonder if Obi-Wan recognized R2-D2.
My thought exactly. George Lucas hadn’t formulated the backstory yet apparently.
I think what was portrayed here is that Obi-Wan clearly knows that there's "something" when he looked at R2.
Apparantely George Lucas didn't plan the backstory of R2 and Obi-Wan, but I guess their reactions aren't completely awkward for someone who watchs the prequels before the trilogy?
Afterall it's been years Obi-Wan haven't seen R2, so it can be argued that he wouldn't expect it to appear here so it could just look the same as R2 and/or he was just being cautious that R2 had been modify to spy on/hunt them
He does remember R2, He say he don't OWN the Droid. R2 is never was his Droid. R2 is Anakin Droid
In "the certain point of View" novel, in the Millennium Falcón he says to R2 he Is happy to travel with him again, so yes
"An elegant weapon for a more civilized age."
I love how the hood makes Obi-Wan look incredibly menacing, but then he pulls it back to reveal a completely human, ordinary-looking old man. The audience’s anxiety is built and then relieved.
Since I’ve been watching Star Wars since I was a kid Old Ben looks completely different now rather then when I first saw him!
Thank you so much for uploading the proper version. I can't stand the other noise and the impossible hole that R2 seems to get into.
I’m glad that kenobi knew that crazy inquisitor lady he left alive didn’t go and kill luke in 9 years
She's probably busy being stabbed through the heart relentlessly in other planetary systems.
I saw Alec Guinness on Letterman. Letterman kept saying '"say the line, say the line!" Guinness says "what line?" Letterman says "you know, the line! The famous line! Say it!" So Guiness goes "Oh all right. May the Force Be With You." And Letterman says "that's the wrong line."
I think Letterman meant "The Force will be with you always." I don't think Guinness ever actually said "May the Force be with you."
Ah, the mithic first "Hello There" of that unforgettable saga of films that is Star Wars
Hello there / I've never seen such devotion in a droid before 👍
First film the best by far 😊
After all these years, I never noticed that Alec Guinness pronounces the "Wan" in "Obi-Wan" not like "wahn", but rhyming with "hand".
It so subtle and clever the way 3P0’s eyes light up at 0:34 when the Tusken raider attacks. The they don’t need to make him look more human because he’s a droid but it’s like his eyes go wide in shock which lets the audience know to also be afraid.
"the sand people are easily startled but they'll soon be back, and in greater numbers"
say what you want about the dialogue but his is very cool. the detail about their behavior is spot on for an audience.
I love this clip ❤️
This is the original OBI-WAN what I’m talking about !!!! 😁😁😁😁😁
He's been saying "hello there" to friend and foe for years.
Of course, Obi-Wan was still be called that when Luke was being born and shortly thereafter when he gave the infant Luke to Uncle Owen & Aunt Beru - and then about 10 years later when he met Darth Vader again.
Ben kenobi racked up tons of debt under the name obiwan, and with collection agencies tracking him, he had no choice but to use the less than imaginative alias of ben kenobi. i for one wouldve changed the LAST name first, but he was never the brightest.
oh look! When Star Wars was an adventure and not a lecture about how much we sucked for liking it when we were kids.
The Alec Guinness version of Kenobi was my favorite Star Wars character.
Alec Guinness the founder of the roll we all know and love without him we have no ewan or space Jesus remember that fellas! A legendary actor if only he could've seen how far its gone!
may the force be with you.
That tenth of a second when you go from wondering why the movie just stopped to remembering that you were just watching a TH-cam clip.
greatest shots of the first one. Of course with Guinness
An old hope!!!!
“SIR Alec Guinness”
John Williams is Star Wars
Will never forget it!!!
Alec Guinness in the desert again...
You can clearly notice George Lucas' fanaticism for Lawrence of Arabia
1:48 Ben/Obi Wan Kenobi: Hello there
Obi-wan does not recognize or remember R2-D2, assumes that is just another droid 😢
See, people talk about how crushed he his about the guy he's only known for a few hours, but it's very clear from this scene and those before that Ben knew him long before. Owen might've tried to keep them apart - "he's got his father in him" - but it's clear Ben was a part of his life, probably from the very beginning.
So you can't judge the Tuscan raiders they are you know totally misunderstood thanks books of boba fett
In all serious Alec Guinness is amazing
1:48
*"GENERAL KENOBI!"*
*"That's fukin Obi Wan Kenobi!"*
3:12 "I TOLD YOU, HE IS OBIWAN F*CKIN KENOBI"
RIP Alec Guinness 🕊️🙏🏼
"There's a guy who quotes this line at every chance, perhaps you know him"
Me: "Well of course I know him, he's me"
Alec also played as Charles I in Cromwell.
R2-D2 🥰
Pure movie magic
Were the Jedi allowed ownership of anything besides a light saber?
After watching these clips makes me realize the sequels just weren’t as good as the originally
How can he forget R2 🤔 massive
If these few minutes were cut...Star Wars would not have lasted.
“Sand people, or worse… let’s go have a look!” Luke skywalker was not known for his caution…☺️
Obi saves The day
I misuse this scene for years. I thought the sand people saw Obiwan, howled in fear and as a signal to flee. Assumed they dealt with obiwan in the past and wanted nothing to do with him. Later on I found out it was Obiwan mimicking the howl of a sand monster and frightened them off.
Once again, a single scene from the original trilogy that outmatches most of the recent one.
I ❤ Star wars
