Ever wonder what some of the big-name Hollywood directors’ pre-fame student and short films were like? Long before Star Wars or even THX 1138, George Lucas was an ordinary University of Southern California film student. For his Senior thesis film, Lucas and 13 other film students produced an eight-minute-long short called 1:42:08 (also known as 1:42:08: A Man and His Car). The dialog-free film follows racing driver Peter Brock as he takes a Lotus 23 through Willow Springs Raceway at full-throttle. The film is now available online for viewing.
