Star Wars: A New Hope is one of the first 25 films to be included into the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress.
These films are not selected as the ‘best’ American films of all time but rather as works of enduring importance to American culture. Other films inducted that year were Wizard of Oz, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Gone With the Wind, Citizen Kane, and Casablanca.
