What you think of Darth Vader may well depend on when you jumped into the Star Wars movies. Was it in 1977 when he was introduced as the big bad villain with no qualms about murdering anyone who stood in his way? Or was it in 1999, when he was introduced as an underprivileged but bright young child? Or maybe you developed in interest in the character when Hayden Christensen portrayed the character as dreamy and dumb. The story of Anakin Skywalker covered six movies, and made appearances in a few more, plus the TV shows, so there's a lot to unpack. And a lot of questions.
Was Anakin Skywalker destined from birth to become the evil Darth Vader, or was it his moral choices that led him to the dark side? Or was he a pawn of the corrupt forces around him? Can he really be "redeemed" after so many murders? Does he mirror other tragic literary characters? Are we supposed to hate him or relate to him? Andrew at The Art of Storytelling manages to cover it all.
