05.25.77: A day long remembered
A New Breed Of Fan
"Star Wars" attracted big repeat business. In the days before home video and DVDs, a theatre was the only place a fan could get their "fix" -- which some did dozens of times. While theatres typically changed programs weekly, "Star Wars" was held over for weeks or months. New York's Astor Plaza played "Star Wars" for 61 weeks.
