...half is an elaborate Michael Jackson video, in which the star emerges from his rickety spaceship to do battle with the Evil Empress, played with magisterial malevolence by Oscar Winner Anjelica Huston (Prizzi's Honor). Jackson, who by now could double for his own Tussaud waxwork, is an improbable Han Solo, but he still dances like a jive Astaire and earned audible swoons from teenage girls at the premiere. The film's 3-D effects are familiar but engineered with flair: an asteroid waits to plop in your lap, Fuzzball hovers adorably over your shoulder, and Huston's tentacle talons...

All share that quarter-inch, side-of-the-mouth smile that follows a sardonic one-liner, and all are based on the rock-hard actor underneath. "The roles get lost in Harrison," says Carrie Fisher, the Princess Leia of the Star Wars series. "I don't think that there...

Carpentry is still Ford's hobby and, as he describes it, his delight. Han Solo and Indiana Jones made him rich. "I am very, very rich," he tells a reporter. "That's what you wanted to hear, isn't it?
