The silence spreads. I talk and must talk. So I speak to him and say to him: “Comrade, I did not want to kill you. If you jumped in here again, I would not do it, if you would be sensible too. But you were only an idea to me before, an abstraction that lived in my mind and called forth its appropriate response. It was that abstraction I stabbed. But now, for the first time, I see you are a man like me. I thought of your hand-grenades, of your bayonet, of your rifle; now I see your wife and your face and our fellowship. Forgive me, comrade. We always see it too late. Why do they never tell us that you are poor devils like us, that your mothers are just as anxious as ours, and that we have the same fear of death, and the same dying and the same agony — forgive me, comrade; how could you be my enemy? If we threw away these rifles and this uniform you could be my brother, just like Kat and Albert. Take twenty years of my life, comrade, and stand up — take more, for I do not know what I can even attempt to do with it now.

“If adventure has a name…”
Happy birthday to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, which was released on this day (May 23rd) in 1984.
For me, it’s probably the weakest of the four Indy films, but it’s still a rollicking good ride with perhaps Ford’s strongest performance as Dr Jones. Oh, and the fact it contains Ford’s bizarre frowny face doesn’t hurt either…
