"George [Lucas] doesn't claim to be Ibsen" --
Ian "Emperor" McDiarmid valiantly making excuses for the abysmal dialogue in the Star Wars films, in the context of his appearance in Ibsen's John Gabriel Borkman. The interview was on BBC Radio 4's Front Row, Wednesday 14 February, and can be heard till next Wednesday here. McDiarmid is being generous. After Phantom Menace, Lucas should never have been let near a script again.
