This 200 footer is a fun, fast moving 8 minutes. It starts with Vader realizing the rebels are on Hoth, then cuts to the battle with the At-At Walkers. Leia, Han, Chewbacca and C-3PO escape in the Falcon and when the hyperdrive fails, they head into an asteroid field. The pursuing ships are destroyed and Han pilots the ship into a cave. The reel ends with Leia saying "I hope you know what you're doing."
Ken released this in a nice box with a soundtrack cassette, similar to the earlier 200' Alien. Unlike that one, this print is sound striped with a mono soundtrack. The blues are still strong on my print, but there is a shift to the Dark Side....I mean red side....of the spectrum.
