On the Rebel Force Radio Facebook page, Pablo Hidalgo of Lucasfilm offered up a very interesting tidbit of information. He indicated that in the sound design of Padmé's death and Anakin's rebirth, there was a conscious effort to work with the heartbeats of the two star-crossed lovers. Both of their heartbeats stopped roughly at the same time. Padmé and Anakin actually died to bring Darth Vader to life. Once Vader's mask is put on and sealed up, his heartbeat is clearly heard again. The heartbeat stops for a moment, just too much of a moment to be considered natural. In this way, the death of Anakin and the birth of Darth Vader are no longer figurative terms. This is an actual procedure that took place, with Padmé being collateral damage in Sidious' plan.
