Return of the Jedi is a fantasy film which beautifully highlights the three stages of the romantic quest. ... Return of the Jedi is much more romance-based than its two predecessors, and the heros quest is the key feature of the film. Although it is not a stand alone movie, Return of the Jedi nonetheless possesses all three stages of the heroic quest, and they are all presented with the power and meaning of a stand alone film. The entire film revolves around the heros quest; each sequence can be linked to one of the three stages. Therefore, the romantic quest is the focal point throughout the entire film. ... The failure of Princess Leia and Chewbaccas plan builds up the difficulty of this perilous quest even more. ... He has already experienced his epiphany in A New Hope; therefore his quest is already underway. ... Instead of being a meek, innocent farm boy, it is now obvious that he is fully immersed in his quest, well on his way to completing the first stage. ... Successful completion of this quest will prove Lukes status, because before the completion of this quest, it is obvious that Luke has not yet achieved greatness. ... However, by completing the perilous journey of rescuing Han Solo, Luke succeeds in gaining respect and proving his status as a Jedi Knight, even from the eyes of his most critical viewer. ... This statement holds exact truth in Return of the Jedi. ... Everything evil in the galaxy is thrown at Luke during this final confrontation, and only an individual of heroic proportions may resist these evils. ... While his comrades are performing their own side quest, it is obvious that the hero is performing a quest of far greater psychological importance, and the setting is a huge influence to this.
