Lucas knows filmic technology and variations on one myth.
 
Knows even one human being (in the films), via words and simple reality, NO........ 
 
Later ones' dialogue was camp upon first viewing.....

On New Year Day one cable network ran all the Star Wars films in
rotation over and over.  I loved the original, but watching it again
Sunday showed  how Lucas could never write decent dialogue. His tin
ear only became more evident as the extraneous bulk of the subsequent
films grew ever more cumbersome.
