Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade (1989) | Ep. 52 - Part 1
After one beloved adventure and one notoriously darker sequel, the brief for the third was simple: send the series out on a high. Luke, Westy, and Matt begin the story.In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Steven Spielberg, the cast, and the second act — including the masterstroke of casting Sean Connery as Indy's father, the young River Phoenix prologue, and the chemistry that powers the whole film.The Grail's still out of reach, and so is the third act. Part 2 closes in: crew, finale, reception, legacy. Available now.
