Vanity Fair prepares us for the next Indiana Jones movie. A great read.
First of all, Raiders of the Lost Ark is the best action movie ever made. The action is motivated by the characters pursuit of the "Maguffin" and therefore the audience believes. Secondly, the Indy movies have heart. We root for Indiana Jones because he isn't perfect, he doesn't know Karate, and he's not a secret agent. He's just a guy like you or me.
Reading this article reminded me of how excited I was as a kid every time one of these blockbusters came out, and, from the sound of the movie in this article, I am justified to get excited again.
The 2nd best action movie ever made is Alfred Hitchcock's North By Northwest, just FYI.
