We spotted a Verdi/Star Wars double-bill in the Milan metro where an exhibition of Star Wars collectibles at the Still Image Museum was juxtaposed with an exhibition in Palazzo Moriggia on the working relationship between Verdi, Boito and Ricordi. "Il mito" in Italian is "the legend", which calls for a Verdi-as-Darth-Vader mash-up or at least a lightsaber duel between the two myths.
