otterandterrier:Deleted scene of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back - Han and Leia on HothOn the breathtaking Rebel Base hangar set built on the then recently opened STAR WARS STAGE at Elstree, circa Summer 1979, Irvin Kershner directs Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher by the Millennium Falcon, for a brief visual comedy moment/gag linked to the ship’s in-repair lifters, which subsequently comedically stall, watched by a less than impressed and smirking Princess Leia-a further dig at lover-to- be Han Solo. This scene, which onscreen showed the one and only time that production Designer Norman Reynold’s specially built prop could move, was an early casualty of scene rearranging in the editing room, and was later replaced by several other evacuation-related moments, including a bridging Second Unit moment directed by George Lucas, showing the back to health Luke talking/saying goodbye to a Medical Droid. -- source link
