Deep Thoughts about Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark
Manage episode 397103672 series 3493147
That [imperialist, whip-wielding archeologist] belongs in a museum!
On today’s Deep Thoughts, Tracie takes on a pillar of her and Emily’s childhood: Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. The sisters talk about what’s great (the soundtrack, the cinematography, Marion Ravenwood’s badassery), what’s not so great (the imperialism, the toxic masculinity, the lack of any women other than Marion), and what’s seriously inaccurate (the bulldozer archeological tactics, the history of the Ark of the Covenant, Marion’s ability to drink giant men under the table).
Listen as we try not to ruin another childhood favorite. Just watch out for snakes!
CW: Conversation about romantic relationships between an adult man and an underage girl, brief mention of the possibility of sexual assault
