"History" VS "herstory"
In 2010, when I watched the 1936 film that was shot by Spielberg in 1981, I was exploring mysterious objects that were unknown to me 3,000 years ago. In such a long historical span, I really can’t say anything~ As an "archaeologist" (to a certain extent, I can call myself that, after all, I am a...

Battle of the Holy Grail
The Holy Grail in the movie is so magical. What is the Holy Grail and what kind of history does it have? First of all, the Holy Grail is said to be the cup used by Jesus at his Last Supper. Later, when he was nailed to the cross, this cup was used to catch the blood that shed from him, thus giving...

Not long ago, I looked at a magazine's list of classic movie history characters, and Indiana Jones was at the top of the list. This amazing archaeologist shows a mature and strong demeanor, "This has nothing to do with age, it is a period of experience." Once again amazed at Director Spielberg's control of the entertainment and commercial blockbuster heat, but due to the age and technological backwardness, some scenes still look a bit funny. Maybe there really was a battle for the ark in World War II.

On closer inspection, the script of the trilogy is very stylized. Desperately embedding Hollywood elements into it, gave birth to a three-pot classic hodgepodge. But I am still very happy to watch, Spielberg can really make trouble. It would be great to see Dr. Jones 20 or 10 years earlier, a perfect feast.
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark quotes
-
Indiana: [Indy meets Belloq in a crowded bar] Belloq.
Belloq: Good afternoon, Dr. Jones.
Indiana: I oughta kill you right now.
Belloq: Not a very private place for a murder.
Indiana: Well, these guys don't care if we kill each other. They're not going to interfere in our business.
Belloq: It was not I who brought the girl into this business. Please, sit down before you fall down. We can at least behave like civilized people.
[Indy sits down while the monkey crawls off his shoulder]
Belloq: I see your taste in friends remains consistent. How odd that it should end this way for us, after so many stimulating encounters. I almost regret it. Where shall I find a new adversary so close to my own level?
Indiana: Try the local sewer.
Belloq: You and I are very much alike. Archaeology is our religion, yet we have both fallen from the purer faith. Out methods have not differed as much as you pretend. I am a shadowy reflection of you. It would take only a nudge to make you like me, to push you out of the light.
Indiana: Now you're getting nasty.
Belloq: You know it's true. How nice. Look at this.
[holds out a pocket watch]
Belloq: It's worthless. Ten dollars from a vendor in the street. But I take it, I bury it in the sand for a thousand years, it becomes priceless... like the Ark. Men will kill for it. Men like you and me.
Indiana: What about your boss, der Fuhrer? I thought he was waiting to take possession.
Belloq: All in good time. When I am finished with it. Jones, do you realize what the Ark is? It's a transmitter. It's a radio for speaking to God. And it's within my reach.
Indiana: You want to talk to God? Let's go see him together. I've got nothing better to do.
[prepares to fight Belloq, but Belloq's men train guns on him, and a crowd of children hurries in to escort him away]
Belloq: Next time, Dr. Jones, it'll take more than children to save you.

Sallah: [catches date and points to dead monkey] Bad dates.
