>>6“This summer, American cinemas have been overwhelmed by a new wave of cinema-psychosis. According to a press release, the film of the American director George Lucas “The War of the Stars” beats all box office records. <...> So, to replace the "evil spirit", mass catastrophes and giant sharks on the American screen came the horrors of a truly cosmic scale - monstrous tyrants, terrorizing our galaxy. The heroes of the film — a certain chubby princess, a village youth, an old knight of the Round Table, a monkey-man and two robots — fight against them. One of them, the tremendous gilded robot Tripio, is endowed with human speech, the other, Art-Detu, looks like a car and speaks with "star" signals ... like a rapier. On the screen now and then there are nightmarish monsters: a man-lizard, dwarfs without faces, a living mummy, whose head is studded with rubber tubes, fantastic animals. <...> The mass audience eagerly “pecks” on such small pieces of “art”, so that later, after leaving the hall, to feel that it is still calmer outside ” --Y. Varshavskaya, “Space Cinema Comics”, Literary Gazette, 1977
