Raiders of the Lost Ark1981

As with Star Wars, the George Lucas-produced Indiana Jones trilogy was not just a plaything for kids but an act of nostalgic affection toward a lost phenomenon: the cliffhanging movie serials of the past. Episodic in structure and with fate hanging … more »



Jones:
Belloq.

Belloq:
Good afternoon, Dr. Jones.

Jones:
I ought to kill you right now.

Belloq:
Not a very private place for a murder.

Jones:
Well, these Arabs don't care if we kill each other. They're not going to interfere in our business.

Belloq:
It was not I who brought the girl into all this. Please, sit down before you fall down. We can at least behave like civilized people. :[Indy then sits down as the monkey crawls off his shoulder and scampers away.] I see your taste in friends remains consistent. How odd that it should end this way for us, after so many... stimulating encounters. I almost regret it. Where shall I find a new adversary so close to my own level?

Jones:
Try the local sewer.

Belloq:
You and I are very much alike. Archaeology is our religion, yet we have both fallen from the pure faith. Our methods have not differed as much as you pretend. I am a shadowy reflection of you. It would take only a nudge to make you like me. To push you out of the light.

Jones:
Now you're gettin' nasty.

Belloq:
You know it's true. How nice. Look at this. [holds out a pocket watch.] It's worthless. Ten dollars from a vendor in the street. But I take it, I bury it in the sand for a thousand years, it becomes priceless! Like the Ark! Men will kill for it. Men like you and me.

Jones:
What about your boss, der Führer? I thought he was waiting to take possession.

Belloq:
All in good time. When I am finished with it. Jones, do you realize what the Ark is? It's a transmitter! It's a radio for speaking to God, and it's within my reach!

Jones:
You wanna talk to God? Let's go see Him together. I've got nothing better to do.

[Indy prepares to shoot Belloq, but the Arabs pull guns on him and a crowd of children hurry in to escort him away]

Belloq:
Next time, Dr. Jones, it will take more than children to save you!
