I'm back to CineTV, responding to its current contest, asking about our favorite movie from our childhood . Seeing the prompt, I didn't have to think much about the answer. It's hard to say what the first film was that I got to see, or even the first time I went to a movie theater. Everything tends to bled together in the murkiness of childhood memories. However, I can most definitely remember the first time a movie…More
Source Karen Allen is the brilliant actress who delighted us with her portrayal of Marion Ravenwood in "Raiders of the Lost Ark". Marion, inspired by classic adventure film heroines, was indeed an independent and non-submissive character. Now let's talk about Indiana Jones. Apparently, Lucas and Spielberg didn't want him to be tied down to any long-term relationship, like a commitment-phobic James Bond with a…More
Ah, a timeless classic. If you are my age then this was a film you'd have grown up with in your youth. Indiana Jones. I was surprised I was allowed to watch it knowing that there was Nazi's and horror stuff at the end. But realistically parents didn't really protect us from adult scenes back when we were young, so we got to see everything in its glorious horror detail. Thankfully though, this was quite tame for its…More

# "The greatest of all mysteries is man."(Socrates). # Throughout the history of mankind, human beings go from tingo to tango as we Venezuelans say, looking for their origins and enigmas. Mystery is what moves them, and they are always inventing problems if they do not have them, I think this is normal because we have a gene of madness, since ancient times, when they are annoyed they investigate and look for the fiv…More
Over the Fourth of July, my bonnie Bride and I decided it was a good time to watch *Raiders of the Lost Ark* (1981) as it has been a very long time since either one of us have watched it. I’m not even sure if I’ve watched it in the current century, which is a bit of a surprise. *Raiders of the Lost Ark* poster - IMDB Raiders, as just about everyone knows, is an awesome film that launched yet another great film franc…More
Source Indiana Jones is probably one of the biggest franchises in modern popular culture that, for reasons of life, I've never had the chance to see. Source So, well, taking advantage of the fact that a sequel was recently going to be released (Marking the return of Harrison Ford in the role of Indy, along with other new actors in the saga such as Mads Mikkelsen or Phoebe Waller-Bridges), I think that this was the p…More
Fuente Saludos de amigos de The Movies & TV Shows Community, > Greetings friends of The Movies & TV Shows Community, _ Confieso que no soy muy amante de las películas de acción, pero si hay algunas que logran atraparme, tal como lo hizo Raiders of the Lost Ark , titulada en español de España como, “En busca del arca perdida” , luego fue llamada “Indiana Jones en busca del arca perdida” , e “Indiana Jones y los cazad…More
The topic of yesterday's writing prompt from @cinetv was our most favourite trilogy. source There are several reasons why a trilogy is created. Maybe they want to tell the story of the Corleone family (Godfather I, II and III), or an empire's attempt to defeat evil (Star Wars IV, V and VI) or even a particular favorite of mine (a Greek trilogy by Theo Angelopoulos) the effects of history on the individual (Days of '…More
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark is the first film in a quadrilogy, probably among the most famous in the world that sees Henry Indiana Jones, professor and teacher of archeology, lover of adventures at the limit to find archaeological finds of fundamental importance to humanity and to keep them safe from potential treasure hunters. Font In the first chapter, the Indian professor is charged by the Ameri…More
I'm a child of the eighties so I grew up with these classics. Dr. Jones was definitely one of the coolest guys from my childhood. I always looked for a hat like his and even practiced with a whip, but to no avail. I can still hear his theme music in my head. The only person strong enough to play Indy's father was James Bond himself. He was a bit mad to play the dad because the actors are only 12 years apart, but it…More
*My first experience in the cinema was with the film Grease that competes in this contest. I was in love with Danny Zuko and I wanted to be beautiful like Sandy. I had posters in my room, I danced to his songs, I wanted some black Lycra and heels but my mom didn't accept..* I remember my second time in the cinema with an action movie, I went with a friend and my aunt, we were in the first row a little uncomfortable…More
There are many reasons why people like certain movies, but often those reasons are quite sentimental in their nature. For example, author of this review likes *Raiders of the Lost Ark* because this film - among other things, of course - brings back nice memories. This film was also not only the subject of my very first movie review, but also the reason why I started reading movie reviews in newspapers and paying att…More
Cheers to Raiders on so many levels. So clean in story, in shot choice, in character, tone, and dramatic tension. Spielberg (director), Lawrence Kasdan (script), George Lucas (story), and Philip Kaufman (story) all crush here. I've written before about the Act 1-2 transition specifically, but today I was thinking about the entire movie. The breakdown feels pretty in line with the overall story focus Indy and Marion…More
37 years ago, my mom took me to a small theatre in Farmington Hills, Michigan to witness what would be yet another solidification of my passion for wanting to make movie. That film was “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” released June 12th, 1981. I was riveted from frame one. Like most folks, who’ve seen it, it was a magical experience. For me, yet another life changer. Heck, my first LONG film I made as a 12 year old kid wa…More
Raiders of the Lost Ark is the beginning of one of the top trilogies of all time and a fantastic movie in it's own right. Starring Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones a professor/archaeologist/badass who hops around the globe recovering ancient treasures and thwarting the Nazis at every opportunity and featuring Paul Freeman, Karren Allen, John Rhys-Davies, and a host of others this movie delivers a fresh and excit…More
Such a fun film. Such great story structure. A blast to analyze. Directed by Steven Spielberg, story by George Lucas and Philip Kaufman, screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan. Today I was thinking about one of the movie's great script transitions, our break from Act 1 to Act 2 and the setup of the film's main question. We meet Indiana and Belloq, we see Indy teaching, meet Marcus, find out the Nazis want the Ark, pack our b…More
