Star Wars meets North by Northwest in Darth by Darthwest!

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

What would happen if you mashed-up Star Wars & Alfred Hitchcock's North By Northwest? Editor Fabrice Matthieu took it upon himself to mash-up up Hitchcock's classic with some dazzling moments from A New Hope, and the result is pretty spectacular.

It's also fairly appropriate, as George Lucas himself always went on record about how influenced he was by Hitchcock, and it's interesting to see how seamlessly Cary Grant's performance and Hitchcock's staging mixes with Lucas's sci-fi epic. It's great stuff and if you dig it – I highly recommend checking out its author Fabrice Mathieu's YouTube page for more examples of his work:
