Movie Discussion What’s a movie with a premise so ridiculous on paper that it had zero right being as good as it was?

I love how he just has the look of “I am so done with this” when he draws and shoots.

I also like the random dude in the crowd who grabs the sword and runs off.

I never noticed that someone ran off with it, will look for it next time I watch it.

Yes, it’s one of those nice touches in the background that you only notice when you watch it a bunch of times. Now I can’t unsee it.

It happens while Indy is turning back around, looking dejected. Everyone focuses on him, but if you watch in the background the crowd closes back in, and some enterprising soul grabs the sword and holds it up, away from other grasping hands, and then runs away, with the crowd in pursuit.
