Star Wars is full of beautiful metaphors and allegories. The Force is a great metaphor for inner spirit, or power, or some other mystical source. The Empire is an illustration of an authoritarian society. The Dark Side is a manifestation of evil and darkness and all the insidious forms it takes. Wookies are a metaphor for… weird little dogs. No matter how you slice it, Star Wars stakes its relevance in whatever era it's being watched in. And it has for almost fifty years. This is the power of good storytelling. It can have a deep resonance and remain timeless because it wields timeless themes.
