Shooting around the globe, director Steven Spielberg and his crew braved 130-degree temperatures and 6,000 live reptiles to create this adventure that celebrates ? and transcends ? the classic serials of the 1940s.
An Academy Award nominee for Cinematography, Directing, Music (Original Score) and Best Picture, and winner for Art Direction, Film Editing, Sound, Visual Effects and Special Achievement in Sound Effects Editing, the film stars Harrison Ford as archaeologist Indiana Jones, who must race against Nazi forces and a shadowy rival in a life-or-death quest to recover the lost Ark of the Covenant.
