**That's fantastic. Going back to the start, what was your first impression of Raiders when you were talking to the producers about doing it? Because it's very Lucas and Spielberg as a story, but it's also unlike what they'd been doing previously. What was your first impression of the movie and of Marion as well

I'm afraid I might disappoint you. It's very much the same thing. Steven doesn't give any acting direction - that is, he doesn't talk about [it]. He expects you to have done your research; to have done the background stuff. He's not going to tell you what you should be thinking as a character at this point in time. What he will say while you're working is, "Look right, look left" because he's looking at what the visual looks like. It's the great thing about somebody who knows their job so well. Once somebody who knows their jobs so well makes a choice, then you just go with it. And that was always apparent with him. It would be breathtaking: you'd come on the set, expecting to do a scene which in the script is a small scene in a tent - a small scene between me and Anthony Higgins and Wolf Kahler, which was set in a tent. When I got to the set, it was an enormous valley. It was a construction site. People with donkeys and ladders carrying sand around, as though they were building the pyramids. And that was entirely Steven leading with his vis

The first sequel in the Indiana Jones franchise, which is technically a prequel as it takes place before the events of Raiders of the Lost Ark , emphasized the darkest elements of the original movie but depicted its nostalgic genre elements in a much more cynical

It would be in a Cancer's nature to elevate a silly misunderstanding into a lifelong fight to the death, but that's exactly why the crab doesn't enjoy The Duellists. It's too much like real life and the Cancer prefers fantasy to real

The third Indiana Jones movie returned the title character back to a story much more in tune with what audiences loved and remembered the most about Raiders of the Lost Ark and fared far better with crit

**I grew up on Raiders of the Lost Ark , and absolutely love it. Revisiting it again before talking to you just hammers home how well it holds up and how well it's aged. Do you often revisit it? Is it a movie you go back to, or do you not like to watch your own stuff

This is a story that takes place in 17th century France and revolves around the illicit and occasionally reckless affairs of the bored upper class. Our last selection was the same, and that means almost exactly the same. Valmont is about the same characters and has almost the same storyline as Dangerous Liaisons , just in a different movie. So, how can Valmont be so differ

That's why it's so good as a period drama for a Cancer. The clothing, architecture, transportation, weapons, even educational facilities are from this specific time period, giving this adventure another dimens

Jumping off Harrison, you and he have such a great on-screen relationship with you playing the warped mirror of him. How was it working with him on set and creating this history? Because there's so much alluded to, but very little actually said in the scr

If gamers want to play Lost Ark beginner Guide Ark now, it's possible to do so from third-party publishers. However, finding a version in English might be a bit awkward. Bear in mind that anything an anxious player downloads now might not be compatible with the version that the North American distributor ends up sell

A Himalayan bar with a drinking contest. The American bartender drinking a local heavyweight under the table. The already recognizable fedora-d silhouette walks into view. The introduction of Marion Ravenwood in **Raiders of the Lost Ark ** remains as vividly exciting and defining in 2021 as it did to audiences when the film first released in 1981. And, indeed, the scene had influence pre-dating that, being the audition script that Karen Allen screen-tested with when auditioning for the r

One of my favorite scenes in all of movie history is the scene in the valley where he's about to destroy it, and you get that amazing speech about the ark and humanity passing through history. I just want to dive into that: how it was written, how you approached it on set, what direction you were given. I'd love to just learn a bit more about that sc

Antiquated gender roles were a topic unto themselves when discussing the movie and its generic, rehashed, structure, whilst satisfyingly tied into the movie's inherent theme of corporate cynicism, was too much nostalgia and not enough ingenuity for s

Yes, those scenes where I am barefoot, which there are a lot of when I'm in that white dress, for the most part. It's very fanciful that I put on that white dress and a pair of high heels out in the middle of the desert. And then I seem to lose my shoes entirely in the Well of Souls. It's interesting. I don't know exactly how I got through being barefoot for all of that. Certainly, in the Well of Souls with all the snakes, it was very challenging. There were a lot of snakes there, and I had nothing on my teeth and nothing on my legs - once the skirt gets ripped, the bottom half of my legs is also completely bare. So, it does feel very much like I have no protection against the fire and the snakes and everything that was going on. I don't know, you just rise to the occasion, as they say. When you're an actor, they throw all these circumstances at you. You just have to sometimes take a deep breath and see it as a part of the adventure. What can I say? I guess I'm a good sp
