After a long foreword set at the end of the Second World War, Harrison Ford It is rendered using advanced digital techniques to make the actor look the same as when he acted in 1981. “Raiders of the Lost Chest”the action of it fifth adventure Indiana Jones takes place in 1969, just twenty-five years later, but now Ford appears with the gray hair and wrinkles of his age. 80 years. Nevertheless, who held. This happens to Ford and Indy when they were the creators of the character. Lucas and Spielbergto take shelter in the shadow of production.

More than a proactive hero
it’s in your hand Phoebe Waller Bridge.

Then come Echoes of Vietnam and the conquest of the Moon, but we already know where we are. There are side jokes about the first movie in the saga, references to other titles, a horse chase in the middle of the New York subway, a car chase through the streets of Tangier, and a rift in time. Indy is in top form at age 80.
