George Lucas said it himself when he reviewed it, "this movie is the life story I wish i had." With it's references to all 3 of the star wars movies and the great acting, George Lucas in love is possibly one of the greatest short films ever made. I'm not the only one who thinks so. Apparently the people at the Texas Film Festival, the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival, and the Tahoe International Film Festival, who gave such awards the 2000 Audience Choice Award and the 2000 Best Short Film think's it's pretty funny too.
