When I first came across that video on my web travels, I thought it was part of that notorious Star Wars Holiday Special that aired in the 70s and hasn’t been seen on television since (I think George Lucas is trying to forget it even exists). However, that is actually from Donny & Marie, and it’s just as surreal, whether not more. lengthy before she was dancing with other stars, Marie played Princess Leia to Donny’s Luke Skywalker. Kris Kristofferson plays Han Solo (and looks like he’d rather be someplace else), the voice of Darth Vader is Thurl Ravenscroft (Tony the Tiger!), and General Harkin is played by…Paul Lynde!
