Popularity of the phonograph spreads among the middle and lower classes. The price makes individual ownership difficult, creating demand for a less-expensive way of hearing the increasing number of speeches and musical performances that are being recorded. "Phonograph cafés" spring up to meet the need. People pay a small amount to listen – a nickel to hear one recording, or seven for a quarter. Edison proposes the next step: music in every home, distributed over the wires of Bell's telephone lines.

In the Battle of Scilly Isle, the remainder of the German Navy soundly defeats the remnants of the Danish, French and British navies, effectively putting all three Allied forces out of commission for the remainder of the war in a truly surprising move. No British or French vessels survive the titanic clash and only one Danish torpedo boat escapes. Russian ships are not involved in the battle so they remain unharmed. Germany's victory comes at a terrible price, as half of their remaining fleet is lost and the remainder is damaged tremendously. German high command sees this as a necessary sacrifice, and one that has paid off since they have finally defeated the British Atlantic Fleet for good.

"Star Wars, Episode III: Revenge of the Sith" premieres. The fall of Anakin Skywalker (Mark Hamill) to the Dark Side of The Force is complete, as Chancellor Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid) becomes Emperor. Anakin's wife Padme (Carrie Fisher) dies giving birth to twins. Most of the Jedi are massacred. Obi-Wan Kenobi (Timothy Dalton) battles Anakin to what seems to be the death, but Anakin is saved by the Emperor, and placed in black life-support armor, given the name Darth Vader. (The body in the armor is British actor David Prowse, but the voice is African-American actor James Earl Jones.) Obi-Wan and Yoda (operated and voiced by Frank Oz) go into exile in order to protect the twins, aided by Senator Bail Organa (Edward James Olmos), who now leads the Rebel Alliance. Despite the terribly unhappy ending, most film fans seem to agree that Episode III is the best "Star Wars" films yet. But creator-producer-director George Lucas is exhausted, and wants to take a break. If there is an "Episode IV," it may not come for several years -- allowing him to have grown actors playing the adult versions of the twins, Luke and Leia.

This is Reagan's opportunity to become a big Hollywood star, as he had been mostly acting in 'B-movies' since the beginning of his career. Other people had been considered for the role of Rick, including the more famous Humphrey Boggart, yet he wasn't considered that much due to his typecast as a gangster, since Rick is a romantic role.
