Transcription
Synopsis
David Prowse is a bodybuilder and actor who famously portrayed the role of Darth Vader in Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi. Unlike most of the other Star Wars stars, however, he is relatively obscure, since James Earl Jones dubbed Vader's voice and Sebastian Shaw portrayed an unmasked Vader (in Return of the Jedi). Prowse lived anonymously in Croydon, a suburb of London.
The story begins with a young filmmaker who travels to London to propose that Prowse reshoot the unmasking scene from Jedi, to prove that Prowse could have played Darth Vader. In a symbolic way, the directors, assisted by a group of enthusiastic fans, try to give Prowse the recognition he never had.
In this documentary, the directors find some clues about the difficult relationship between Prowse and Lucasfilm, suggesting that the reason for their differences was an article published by a British newspaper during the shooting of Return of the Jedi.
