"I grew up watching these films, and in fact, on reflection, it defined my experience of cinema-going because I was, prior to this, prior to seeing Star Wars, I was probably only watching 101 Dalmatians, The Rescuers, the animated Disney films, and then Star Wars came, and no one had seen anything like it. So, it had a profound effect, certainly on the youth of that time, and therefore sits in a very, very warm place, really in my memory and my heart."
