Clueless about Star Wars? Well, here's a little lowdown on the character of Anakin Skywalker! We meet Anakin Skywalker when he's a young boy and we watch him become a Jedi- knight, then a Jedi-master. He becomes a great hero, but pride, ego and selfishness take over and he chooses to go to the Dark Side. The rest of the movie is about the consequences of what happens when you don't take responsibilities of your own action, and when you think you're better then anybody else.
