4Behind the Scenes Featurette from the movie Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989).
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is a 1989 American action-adventure film directed by Steven Spielberg from a screenplay by Jeffrey Boam, based on a story by George Lucas and Menno Meyjes. It is the third instalment in the Indiana Jones film series and the follow-up to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984), while being a direct sequel to Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. Harrison Ford returned in the title role, while his father is portrayed by Sean Connery. Other cast members featured include Alison Doody, Denholm Elliott, Julian Glover, River Phoenix, and John Rhys-Davies. In the film, set in 1938, Indiana searches for his father, a Holy Grail scholar, who has been kidnapped and held hostage by the Nazis while on a journey to find the Holy Grail.
After the criticism that Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom received, Spielberg chose to make a more lighthearted film for the next instalment, as well as bringing back several elements from Raiders of the Lost Ark. During the five years between The Temple of Doom and The Last Crusade, he and executive producer Lucas reviewed several scripts before accepting Jeffrey Boam's. Filming locations included Spain, Italy, West Germany, Jordan, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
The Last Crusade was released in the United States on May 24, 1989, by Paramount Pictures. The film received generally positive reviews from critics for Ford and Connery's performances, humour, the father-son relationship, action sequences, and John Williams' score. It was a financial success, earning over $474 million worldwide, making it the highest-grossing film of 1989. It also won the Academy Award for Best Sound Effects Editing and was nominated for Best Original Score and Best Sound at the 62nd Academy Awards. A sequel, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, followed in May 2008, while a fifth and final film, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, was released in June 2023.
