Globe-trotting archaeologist Indiana Jones (Ford) is hired to find the mystical Lost Ark of the Covenant. Love interest Marion Ravenwood (Allen), rival (fly-eating) archaeologist Belloq (Freeman) and the ultimate screen villains, the Nazis complicate the adventure. "Raiders" was the top-grossing movie of 1981, and was the winner of five well-deserved Academy Awards."Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom" is the sequel to "Raiders" (but was actually a prequel that was curiously set one year prior to the events in "Raiders"), and finds our favorite archaeologist-adventurer (Ford) in India on a quest to locate the Sankara stones that were stolen from a village and return enslaved children to their families. The chief instigator of the PG-13 MPAA rating, the Oscar-winning visual effects and the thrilling mine car chase are among the film's highlights. Indiana Jones (Ford) goes on The Last(?) Crusade in search of the Holy Grail, only this time his feisty father (Connery) and old pals Dr. Brody (Elliott) and Sallah (Rhys-Davies) are along for the ride. (Michael Coate)
