Remember a couple dozen posts ago when I mentioned what I call the famous "Ford Finger?" Well, here it is in all its glory:

Everytime I see the Ford Finger, I suddenly hear, "You find this man! You find this man!" from THE FUGITIVE. :D

Thanks! Someone should tell that gorgeous man it isn't polite to point. :rolleyes:
I just think it's hysterical how he uses it for everything! He's always gesticulating in some way. Just looking at those pics, you can hear him yelling," Where's my family?" "How dare you!" "You find this man!" etc..

You want some good Ford finger pointing, check out this trailer!

LoL its funny someone started this topic bcuz its like I associate people doing that in real life with Harrison Ford. It could be my boss yelling at me but if he points I smirk. I just immediately think of when he does it in ESB on the Falcon to 3P0.

Every great actor has a trademark. That's his. Another example: Will Smith always says "Hell, no!" in every movie. I can't imagine anyone else who can do that as well as Mr Ford. (y) I just realised, maybe we need an Indy smilie with the Ford Finger. :p

Speaking of the Ford Finger in Empire. The scene from the Fugitive where he wants the detectives to "find that man" has some extreme Ford Finger. I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Did Will Smith use "Hell, no!" in I Am Legend at all? I don't seem to remember it in that one. But that would definitely be the exception to the rule.

Since when is the Finger of Doom called "The Ford Finger" ? Anway, love it.

I'm just not sure wether or not we should move this thread to the "open film" forum...?

LOL that kid from the clip sure was feeling Dr. Richard's suffering!
I think Ford's finger has been one of his own symbols indeed.
