Never Mind Indy... Here's the Shiznit

I’m a Spielberg fan to death, but hardly an Indiana Jones fan at all. I saw Raiders of the Lost Ark at 10 years old, Temple of Doom at 13 (when I shoulda been seeing Wild Style) and The Last Crusade at 18, with my parents and/or pops every single time. Raidersgot me excited about my fifth grade social studies class for about two days. I’ll get around to seeing Kingdom of the Crystal Skull sometime next week, but part of me hopes it bombs, considering the weak plot and how Spielberg and George Lucas were apparantly asleep at the wheel.

So forget Indy; if you’re in Paris now into the summertime, the following films are interesting over at the Cinémathèque Française over the next three months:

The Graduate – June 1
Last Tango in Paris – June 19
The Dreamers – June 22
Alphaville – July 7
The Wizard of Oz – July 16
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial – July 23
Superman – July 30
