Radio Drama Interpretation and Film Comparison

One form of media test I attempted was to take a scene from Star Wars and illustrate how it was portrayed win  the film but also in a radio drama format. Although both mediums told teh same story ,the radio drama had a more in depth description of the story and the characters.

 The segment I would like to reinterpret into a visual format is from 2:13:24 to 2:16:40

[UPDATED] This video is no longer available.

I chose the scene where Luke heads home to find the place burnt and his family killed. In the radio drama, this scene is reinterpreted from Obiwan's perspective. Luke heads off home while Obi-wan tells C3P0 to bury the Jawas. Luke returns emotionally scarred and he tells Obi-wan about what he saw so that we, the audience can understand what he saw. In this version, Mark Hamill delivers the lines in a more convincing performance. However it is cut short when he changes his decision quickly and decides to join Obi-wan on his quest. In my opinion, I think it would have been more effective if Obi-wan gave Luke some time to recover from his ordeal and to be by himself.

Here is my sketch of the scene based of the film's visual iteration.

Here is how I visually perceived the scene as it was interpreted through the radio drama.

Combination Attempt

Here is an attempt I made to combine the two together so that we cut back and forth to Luke when he's telling Kenobi about what happened. While I made this interpretation of the scene. I showed this to a friend and when we discussed the inconsistent and spontaneous change for Luke to instantly changing his mind and joining Obi-wan on his quest. It felt very rushed. He suggested that he may have been thinking about this while driving back. I had a thought of recreating that scene with Luke thinking about the homestead while driving he gets more upset thinking about it and almost hits a rock when he takes his eyes off the road. He parks alongside a canyon edge and a rest his head on the steeling mechanism. I feel this approach might be  effective as it can be told without the character saying a word.
