Today The Beard is celebrating a birthday...
That's right the Master Jedi himself, George Lucas is celebrating being sixty-nine years old. And he's finally moving on to do those things in life he's wanted to do, but a little something got in the way. After creating the iconic filmography that has included "American Graffiti , "Indiana Jones", and of course, "Star Wars", the film maker has finally moved on to being a museum curator.
That said, he's left an incredible mark on American pop culture and even global film history. Although his life will now pursue another course, his legacy will endure, and his creations will be timeless. Many (myself included) may fault him for the fallacy that are the Prequels, but most directors, writers and producers would kill for a career so prolific upon the consciousness of mankind.
Happy Birthday, George...
