Indy and Hitler

[Miss Ravenwood]

What do you think of the scene in LC where Indy's in Germany and he stumbles into Hitler at the rally?

I really like it, it's one of my favourite parts of LC. The look on Indy's face is perfect.

But I hear they made a mistake with Hitler's hands when he signs Indy's diary. Is this true? What exactly was the mistake? Something to do with Hitler using the wrong hand to write with I seem to remember...

Yes, I think it was that Hitler signed with his right when he was really left handed. But I'm not too sure.

And yes, it is a funny scene. Rather wry for an adventure film.

Its funny that Indy should encounter Hitler in 1938, as he was probably the one (in)famous figure that Indy didnt meet in the YIJ series! (funnily enough they were both runners in the trenches)

Also Hitlers autograph was unreadable. However you can clearly read his name.

Given the relationship Jones had with Abner at one point, and our original suspicion that Abner may be involved with the National Socialist German Labor Party, we have reason to believe an autograph may not have been the only thing exchanged at this encounter, as many historians would have you believe. Professor Jones was dressed as an officer; we are looking into whether or not Hitler game him information, which would link him to the current expedition he is currently planning.
