A Thousand Stars: Episode IV, Part 14

[matril]

After Luke realizes the stormtroopers must have tracked droids to his aunt and uncle, we see him rush back to the homestead with an urgent rendition of the Force theme that builds to a crescendo as he arrives. Alas. The tragedy unfolds before his eyes, the billowing smoke and a painful pan to the remains of his family.

Luke's reaction is shown briefly but poignantly. We don't need a ten-minute sequence or lots of words or closeups of his face. Just this and this. A long shot of the tragic scene gives us a final image of devastation.

Next, more story through images alone...
