19. Obi-Wan Explains The Nature Of The Force
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2YQJsbbWNA THE QUOTE: The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together. THE SPEAKER: Obi-Wan Kenobi THE FILM: Star Wars: A New Hope THE BACKGROUND: After Luke is attacked by a member of the Sand people, Obi-Wan takes him back to his home to recover. While there, Obi-Wan reveals to Luke that he is a Jedi Knight, the same as his father. He then entreats the youngster to learn the ways of the Force and become a Jedi like his father. Luke then asks what the Force actually is, and Obi-Wan obliges, describing the Force as a mystical energy field that binds all living things together. And look, not a midi-chlorian in sight. FUN FACT: This is the scene in which Obi-Wan gives Luke his fathers light saber in accordance with his wishes. He also explains how Anakin Skywalker was betrayed and murdered by Obi-Wans apprentice, Darth Vader.
