Indiana Jones And The Lost Ark Analysis
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark was a very action-packed movie with the main character really not accomplishing his goal. The whole theme and the whole central idea of the film was that sometimes in life things are just meant to not be disturbed to be in your life. Indiana wanted that ark, he tried and risked his life to do as much as he could to get that ark. Only thing was that he was fighting against another archaeologist who also wanted it. With all the problems that it caused, none of them got to keep the ark, because it wasn’t meant to be kept. Way too many problems occur if you do attempt, which is what the movie demonstrated.

    Watching the movie Indiana Jones The Raiders of the Lost Ark was great to feel like you're there. And you can tell there a relationship between Jones and Marion because they seem to have already met and have a past relationship and to pick up back where they left off and helping with that happening in the movie helped me find the theme of the movie i’m not gonna lie was very difficult but I found a couple of possible themes one theme I picked was action. Action because there was a lot of action in the movie with all the fighting, guns, fire, and jumping i thought that if they took out of that then the movie would be like ten to five minutes long. Another theme i thought was a possibility was mystery. Mystery because they go on hunts for treasure…

    One of the most powerful movie elements to how the audience perceives a scene of the film is often looked over. Close to all pivotal movie scenes contain the little background music, also known as underscore. This powerful audio element effects the way audiences feel and react to a scene. The underscore that is present in The Book Thief greatly impacted the tone, mood, and suspense of certain scenes. Three of these scenes that were greatly impacted by underscore were when the Nazi party came to check basements for air raid shelters, when Liesel writes her life story in the basement, and when Liesel walks up Himmel Street after the bomb hits.…

    This year, the grade 5 and 6 classes performed some of Steven Spielberg’s films: Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, ET (The Extraterrestrial), Hook, and Jurassic Park. Like last years play, it was like an interview, and instead of E-Talk, it was based on Inside The Actor’s Studio, where the actors talk about their roles in their movie.

    Aeneas and Jones were both extremely dedicated to their goals. Aeneas continued to lead his people forward and toward their destinies despite many setbacks, such as the attack from the Trojan horse and the death of his wife. Jones was committed to finding The Ark despite the competitors and snakes, which he feared greatly, in his way. Though, despite this similar dedication, the two men had drastically different outlooks on their lots in life. Aeneas was reluctant to continue his journey; in fact, he truly only kept moving forward because of his sense of duty to his people and country and because he felt as if he couldn’t escape his fate. Indiana Jones was the complete opposite, he loved his work and found enjoyment in traveling the world in search of rare artifacts. His search for The Ark was driven partially by his sense of responsibility to keep The Ark from falling into the wrong hands, but it was mostly driven by his own desire to go after the legendary artifact. Jones was passionate about his mission and this key difference keeps him from being the most similar to…

    “ I will fall like an ocean on that court! Fear nothing, Elizabeth.” - John Proctor, “The Crucible” pg.45. John Proctor tells his wife, who is accused of witchcraft, that he will not stop until he frees her. This can be compared to the Majestic, Peter Appleton, the main character in the movie, was accused of being a communist. He was driving after he was told he was blacklisted. He crashed his car into a river, he lost all of his memory and washed up in a small town. The people in the town thought he was a soldier, who was lost in the war. He took up a alias of Luke Trimble. I think that the story the Crucible is comparable to many parts of the movie, the Majestic.…
