Scatola del Tempo rewarded the great director of Star Wars during ShoWest in Las Vegas

Scatola del Tempo, a prestigious Italian company, creator of rotating watch holders, has recently rewarded the director George Lucas, ...
one of the protagonists of world cinema’s excellence, during the ShoWest in Las Vegas last March 10-13th. The annual convention brings together the operators of today’s international cinema and took place at the Theatre Des Artes of the hotel de Paris in Las Vegas this year. If its public enthusiastically welcomed all the most exciting novelties of American cinema, they reserved an ecstatic reception for George Lucas. The great director and producer presented a new chapter in the mythical Star Wars saga: a cartoon, Clone Wars, which will be released in the USA next August 15th. Lucas’s entrance, announced by Warner Brothers’ president, Alan Horn, was especially appreciated by the public, who honoured him with a standing ovation. The director was escorted by six startroopers in their fabulous white uniforms. The animated TV series – which includes all the same characters as in the movie Clone Wars – will air in the USA next fall in weekly episodes, after which Lucas will once again start working on a TV show “in flesh and blood”. When he’ll be through with the latter as well, in a few years’ time his plan is to dedicate himself, in the same way as Francis Ford Coppola with Youth Without Youth, to all those movies he’d wanted to make in his youth, but couldn’t – being in some way a prisoner of Star Wars for thirty years.
