Obi-Wan's Recollection of Luke's Father with Footage from the Star Wars Prequels
George Lucas didn't plan to have Darth Vader be Luke Skywalker's father when Episode IV came out. But he worked it in and the idea makes sense from a certain point of view--as Obi-Wan later tells Luke.
It gets more complicated when Episodes I-III describe the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker. Some fans think that it doesn't make any sense at all. But YouTube user Shahan Reviews edited Obi-Wan's remembrance of Luke's father so that he seems haunted by the past. Obi-Wan isn't lying to Luke. He's just trying to come to grips with what he lost those many years ago.
