The flip-side of the Star Wars coin, Hamill will always be Luke
Skywalker, his post-Lucas career being populated by cartoons,
B-movies and computer games. He lost his pretty boy looks prior to
Empire Strikes Back and consequently his squeaky-clean approach bled
into an unconvincing dark side that read more like sour grapes than
depth. Idealised by a generation who then spurned his attempts to
diversify, his failure is even more sharply exposed by Harrison Ford's
success.
