Fascinating behind-the-scenes peek into the making of George Lucas' ''Star Wars'' sequel, ''The Empire Strikes Back''. Dated 14 February 1979, this 84pp. production budget for the film outlines in minute detail every conceivable expense from each star's salary to wardrobe purchases for extras. The first page summarizes each category of expenses, which are then itemized in the following 83pp., and provides the total anticipated cost of just over $12.4 million dollars. Document measures 8'' x 13''. Very good plus condition. From the collection of former 20th Century Fox executive Peter Beale.
