No, that was THX-1138.  He later refilmed the same movie for commercial
release, and is mainly useful as part of the trivia question 'what are the
only three movies George Lucas ever directed?'.  Also, the "THX" is part of
the name of a sound system he later developed.

The film is interesting, though interest erodes somewhat throughout.
