The beauty and tragedy of Biggs Darklighter giving his life to protect Luke is really understated in the film. #StarWars

LIke, in most action movies, you just nameless 'guys falling down in the background' whereas A New Hope says, "This is Biggs, he's Luke's childhood friend; this is Red Leader, he's heroic and calm under fire...they die anyway because that happens in war."
I remember people complaining Rogue One was 'too dark' for a Star Wars removing and responded by making a list of of all of the named 'good guy' characters that die in A New Hope.

Yeah, found my list. I may have missed some but it ran: Captain Antilles Owen Lars* Beru Lars* Obi-Wan Kenobi** Porkins (Jek Porkins) Tiree (Dex Tiree) 'Pops' (Davish Krail) 'Dutch' (Jon Vander) Red Leader* (Garven Dreis) Biggs Darklighter*

With the asterisks marking characters I thought got meaningful characterization beyond a name. Also of course unnamed characters, Red 10, Red 4, Leia's entire ship's crew, the Jawas, etc.
