Kenny Baker’s Eye Visible in Star Wars
Posted by Donna Dolezal Zelzer on May 2nd, 2006
Did you know that near the beginning of Star Wars: A New Hope , you can see Kenny Baker’s eye inside R2-D2?
It happens during the scene where R2-D2 is hiding in the rocks after the Sand People attacked Luke. Take a good look when there are close ups of the little droid, and you’ll see a human eye behind R2-D2’s lens.
Sometimes I can watch this scene without seeing the eye, but sometimes it jumps out at me and I have to put my hand over the screen because it looks so creepy.
