Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny & Past Lives
Manage episode 376792515 series 3510856
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" is the fifth and presumably final installment in an adventure series that began way back in 1981. In this podcast episode, HCC film professors Marie Westhaver and Mike Giuliano talk about the history of that series and what it's like to now have Harrison Ford as an 80-year-old Indy Jones; and yes, they also talk about the computer-generated de-aging that shows him as a much younger man in the film's prologue. They agree that this movie works as a cinematic theme park ride. Marie and Mike also discuss a very different film, "Past Lives," about childhood friends in Korea who grow apart and then reunite after 24 years. Marie and Mike both really admire how well this film comments on the nature of friendship and the what-if aspects of relationships.
