Now, you seem to know all about this Tanis. Well, obviously we've come to the right men. However, about a year after the pharaoh had returned to Egypt, the city of Tanis was consumed by the desert in a sandstorm that lasted a whole year. and he may have taken the Ark back to the city of Tanis and hidden it in a secret chamber called the Well of Souls. invaded the city of Jerusalem around about 980 B.C. Until, all of a sudden, whoosh, it's gone. Look, the Hebrews took the broken pieces and put them in the Ark, and when they settled in Canaan, they put the Ark in a place called the Temple of Solomon. Didn't either of you guys ever go to Sunday school? The original stone tablets Moses brought down from Mount Horeb and smashed, if you believe in that sort of thing. What do you mean, the commandments? You're talking about the Ten Commandments? The chest the Hebrews used to carry around the Ten Commandments. The city of Tanis is one the possible resting places of the Lost Ark. Just what does that mean to you, uh, "Tanis"? Acquire headpiece, Staff of Ra, Abner Ravenwood, U.S. Now we've got some information here, but we can't make anything out of it, and maybe you can. He's obsessed with the occult, and right now, apparently, there's some kind of German archaeological dig going on in the desert outside of Cairo. You see, over the last two years, the Nazis have had teams of archaeologists running around the world looking for all kinds of religious artifacts. Yesterday afternoon, our European section intercepted a German communiqué that was sent from Cairo to Berlin. Now, you studied under Professor Ravenwood at the University of Chicago?Īnd you have no idea of his present whereabouts?
Why don't you sit down? You'll be more comfortable. Professor of Archaeology, expert on the occult and, how does one say it. Jones, we've heard a great deal about you. Years have passed since the last film (another is supposedly in the works), but emerging film buffs can have the same fun their predecessors did picking out numerous references to Hollywood classics and B-movies of the past. Supporting players and costars were very much a part of the series, too-Karen Allen, Sean Connery (as Indy's dad), Kate Capshaw, Ke Huy Quan, Amrish Puri, Denholm Elliot, River Phoenix, and John Rhys-Davies among them. (Pro-Temple of Doom people, on the other hand, believe that film to be the most disarmingly creative and emotionally effective of the trio.) One thing's for sure: Harrison Ford's swaggering, two-fisted, self-effacing performance worked like a charm, and the art of cracking bullwhips was probably never quite the iconic activity it soon became after Raiders.

Fans and critics disagree over the order of preference, some even finding the middle movie nearly repugnant in its violence. Steven Spielberg directed all three films, which are set in the late 1930s and early '40s: the comic book-like Raiders of the Lost Ark, the spooky, Gunga Din-inspired Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and the cautious but entertaining Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Episodic in structure and with fate hanging in the balance about every 10 minutes, the Jones features tapped into Lucas's extremely profitable Star Wars formula of modernizing the look and feel of an old, but popular, story model. As with Star Wars, the George Lucas-produced Indiana Jones trilogy was not just a plaything for kids but an act of nostalgic affection toward a lost phenomenon: the cliffhanging movie serials of the past.
