The following is the information seen in "Watching Movies", reproduced.

In 1973, George Lucas became famous for his "American Style Painting", but the earliest Geek already had some crazier ideas in his heart. "Star Wars" was one of them. One is about the madness of adventurous archaeology. Two years later, at a dinner, Lucas and another fledgling director, Philip Kaufman, talked about the action-adventure movie Raidenhua he watched as a child. They met each other late and had mixed feelings. Lucas took out the story of "Indiana Jones" to discuss with him, and named the male protagonist Indiana Smith (Indiana is the name of the Lucasian Husky.) Lucas was busy with official duties in "Star Wars", so Kaufman was invited to serve as the director, but Kaufman politely declined because of the need to write the script for Clint Eastwood's "The Law Enforcer of the West". In 1977, the success of "Star Wars" made Lucas the new power magnate in Hollywood. Lucas also went to Hawaii and gave himself a vacation. There, he met another old friend-Spielberg. At that time, Spielberg had already filmed "The Third Type of Contact." In the Hawaiian daylight, Spielberg talked about the situation where he recently wanted to direct "007" but was shut down. Lucas came up with a better plan. Spielberg was stunned at the time, but he couldn't finish it. He only suggested that Lucas shoot it himself. Lucas said, "I'm going to retire. If you want to shoot, it will be yours." Subsequently, Lucas handed the script to the screenwriter of "The Empire Strikes Back" Lawrence Kasdan for polishing, and finally discussed with Spielberg. In the end, Spielberg changed the protagonist's surname from Smith to Jones, and the familiar Doctor Treasure and a series that lasted for more than 20 years were born.

    How did this film get 8 Oscar nominations back then... and this film that pioneered the adventure film style, the inside is really a very regular western, and the bridge can go back... true It's not because I read "The Biography of Spielberg" I guess I wouldn't watch this film. How could the highbrow film critics in the United States say good things about this kind of film... But today, Wu Ershan's main reference for [Search for Dragon Jue] is this one (and the Holy Grail one). Interesting points: metaphors of nuclear weapons, Jewish motifs, Paramount Mountain-matching clips of the mountains.

    Revisit the original work of the new generation of treasure hunts, Spielberg and Lucas have joined forces to make Dr. Jones a cultural symbol, Nazi mysticism, Bible religion, Middle East, Africa and Latin America. Various elements of terrorism and institutions are countless The shadow ark, the Holy Grail, and the Holy Grail can be found in the shadows of the younger generations. There are so many stories to write the various climax scenes in the film. The arrangement is too dense and it makes people feel tired.

Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark quotes

  • Indiana: This site also demonstrates one of the great dangers of archaeology; not to life and limb, although that does sometimes take place. I'm talking about folklore.

  • Sallah: Indy, you have no time. If you still want the ark, it is being loaded onto a truck for Cairo.

    Indiana: Truck? What truck?
