00:06:41 ◼   ► writes about how before he lost his [TS]

00:06:43 ◼   ► voice he would he would do these [TS]

00:06:44 ◼   ► sessions with citizen came in front of a [TS]

00:06:51 ◼   ► time and they would look at the frame [TS]

00:06:52 ◼   ► and talk about it and I thought I [TS]

00:06:54 ◼   ► actually think Raiders could withstand [TS]

00:06:55 ◼   ► that level of scrutiny [TS]

00:06:57 ◼   ► yeah as I was watching and I was [TS]

00:06:58 ◼   ► thinking you know even every the economy [TS]

00:07:01 ◼   ► of it every shot every line of dialogue [TS]

00:07:03 ◼   ► has a reason for being there some of it [TS]

00:07:06 ◼   ► really not obvious at the time and and [TS]

00:07:08 ◼   ► and doesn't feel obvious but at [TS]

00:07:10 ◼   ► everything you see the reason the monkey [TS]

00:07:12 ◼   ► is there the conversations that Marion [TS]

00:07:15 ◼   ► has when she's closing up the bar the [TS]

00:07:17 ◼   ► drinking the drinking scene which seems [TS]

00:07:19 ◼   ► to just be about her character until you [TS]

00:07:20 ◼   ► see her do it again in the desert with [TS]

00:07:22 ◼   ► Belloc there's so much there that is [TS]

00:07:25 ◼   ► perfectly every shot is there for a [TS]

00:07:27 ◼   ► reason and you could really take it [TS]

00:07:29 ◼   ► apart and the other the other thought I [TS]

00:07:30 ◼   ► had when I was watching it is it's old [TS]

00:07:32 ◼   ► enough now because it was made in what [TS]

00:07:34 ◼   ► 1981 yeah sometimes 1988 it's old enough [TS]

00:07:37 ◼   ► now that it feels like a classic movie [TS]

00:07:39 ◼   ► and instead of being of its time I look [TS]

00:07:41 ◼   ► at it now and I think I feel about this [TS]

00:07:43 ◼   ► movie like I feel about Lawrence of [TS]

00:07:44 ◼   ► Arabia except actually liked this movie [TS]

00:07:45 ◼   ► more than Lawrence of Arabia so I I [TS]

00:07:48 ◼   ► think you're right I i would say it is [TS]

00:07:50 ◼   ► one of the best movies and and it might [TS]

00:07:52 ◼   ► be Spielberg's best it doesn't have a [TS]

00:07:54 ◼   ► lot of Spielberg he's got a lot of [TS]

00:07:56 ◼   ► things that he does that are kind of [TS]

00:07:57 ◼   ► kind of sappy I'm kind of over played [TS]

00:08:00 ◼   ► there are a few of those things in here [TS]

00:08:01 ◼   ► i think at one point in the monkey [TS]

00:08:03 ◼   ► actually goes 0 which is just like come [TS]

00:08:05 ◼   ► on [TS]

00:08:06 ◼   ► but generally I think you're right yeah [TS]

00:08:07 ◼   ► and then that whole class of filmmakers [TS]

00:08:09 ◼   ► those you know the Lucas Spielberg [TS]

00:08:11 ◼   ► Coppola you know that whole seventies [TS]

00:18:10 ◼   ► real like it gets to buy into the entire [TS]

00:18:12 ◼   ► premise right that somebody ought to be [TS]

00:18:31 ◼   ► played in terms of being at least up [TS]

00:18:33 ◼   ► until the very last scene they're very [TS]

00:18:35 ◼   ► subtle and I think that's yeah I prior [TS]

00:18:38 ◼   ► to the very last scene i think the only [TS]

00:18:40 ◼   ► indication you get is that one scene of [TS]

00:18:42 ◼   ► the arc on the interest in the hold of [TS]

00:18:44 ◼   ► the boat where it with the rat where [TS]

00:18:56 ◼   ► that like it's still not mean that's the [TS]

00:18:58 ◼   ► part where you start thinking okay this [TS]

00:19:00 ◼   ► is you know a little bit more out there [TS]

00:19:01 ◼   ► but up until that point everything does [TS]

00:19:03 ◼   ► seem very well we like India are very oh [TS]

00:19:05 ◼   ► this is just you know in a valuable and [TS]

00:19:08 ◼   ► artifact that we'd like to have that's [TS]

00:19:11 ◼   ► written that I agree and it's part of [TS]

00:19:13 ◼   ► the story it's part of what makes it [TS]

00:19:14 ◼   ► great and and there's yeah it gives it a [TS]

00:19:16 ◼   ► sort of why are they even why they've [TS]

00:19:18 ◼   ► been going through all this before you [TS]

00:19:19 ◼   ► know it is quit is a cool artifact is it [TS]

00:19:22 ◼   ► worth it to go through all this there is [TS]

00:19:24 ◼   ► another scene where I'm the lock is I [TS]

00:19:28 ◼   ► guess romancing romancing Marion in the [TS]

00:19:32 ◼   ► tent where he talks about the ark as an [TS]

00:19:35 ◼   ► artifact and i was i was tuned into it [TS]

00:19:39 ◼   ► like shift gears and starts to say oh [TS]

00:19:42 ◼   ► and no army can be defeated if it's got [TS]

00:19:44 ◼   ► the arc in front of it because it's got [TS]

00:19:46 ◼   ► the power of God which always seemed [TS]

00:19:47 ◼   ► very strange to me because I other than [TS]

00:19:50 ◼   ► that seen Belloc seems to be completely [TS]

00:19:52 ◼   ► mercenary although you know I guess at [TS]

00:19:54 ◼   ► the end when it's revealed that he too [TS]

00:19:56 ◼   ► has this hope that it's religiously [TS]

00:19:58 ◼   ► powerful but only because he can use it [TS]

00:20:00 ◼   ► for his own purposes so he sort of more [TS]

00:20:02 ◼   ► of a believer than indy but much more [TS]

00:20:04 ◼   ► cynical about it than India's well he's [TS]

00:20:06 ◼   ► very advantageous to and we see that in [TS]

00:20:08 ◼   ► the very first scene with him to write [TS]

00:20:09 ◼   ► where he gets the idol and he takes it [TS]

00:20:14 ◼   ► name is it you have to go after it [TS]

00:20:17 ◼   ► go after indie and so I think there's [TS]

00:20:18 ◼   ► clearly an idea that like in these kind [TS]

00:20:21 ◼   ► of in this for you know knowledge for [TS]

00:20:23 ◼   ► for his own sort of curiosity where as [TS]

00:20:26 ◼   ► bella is really interested in in getting [TS]

00:20:32 ◼   ► blocks character perfectly like when we [TS]

00:20:35 ◼   ► see him in that last scene why is he [TS]

00:20:36 ◼   ► doing this well we can kind of [TS]

00:20:37 ◼   ► understand that like this you know we've [TS]

00:20:39 ◼   ► sort of seen his behavior in this in [TS]

00:20:56 ◼   ► gunfire and what is what struck me about [TS]

00:20:58 ◼   ► it and watching it again is that it [TS]

00:21:00 ◼   ► could have been written so badly and it [TS]

00:21:02 ◼   ► isn't unlocked is your typical sort of [TS]

00:21:04 ◼   ► villain speech of we are so alike you [TS]

00:21:07 ◼   ► and I ND and you would take very little [TS]

00:21:09 ◼   ► to make you like me and the the wrong [TS]

00:21:11 ◼   ► way to write that scene is to have it [TS]
