  Hey guys (and gals)!

  I know there has been a good deal of discussion re: Obi-Wan Kenobi's hair from The Phantom Menace on this board. I just read on the Star Wars website that both the long braid in the front AND the ponytail in the back were fake! They cut Ewan MacGregor's long hair for the movie and THEN George Lucas decided Obi Wan should have a pony-tail. So the costume folks found some hair and stuck on Ewan's head. I saw the movie again this weekend, and they really did a nice job. It looks real (except for that time on Tatooine where the braid is on the wrong side)!!!

  Just thought folks here might be interested!
