I thought it was Danny La Rue who taught Indy how to beat the Germans?
As for Lash, it's still there right at the top of his wiki page:

this has been covered a lot in the documentaries .. Michael Khan (?) the editor deliberately cut out the few frames where the fly flew off .... no one was bothered and they thought it added to Belloqs 'evilness'

The last DVD release in the UK came with an extra disk of special features ....
and im pretty sure its mentioned in the complete making of book as well ..... by Paul Freeman.
funny enough i the UK we have 'Eccles' cakes which are also reffered to as dead fly pie ..... maybe 'Bell-osh!' lol would like those too?

I always knew the Eccles as the 'squashed fly cake', but 'dead fly pie' has a nice ring to it!
And don't forget the Chorley cake also has it's fly quotient!

Well, 2 sources is hardly what one would call 'a lot' but I won't dwell on that, The Character.The Character said:
What year was the last UK DVD release and is the extra disc much different to the Bonus Materials DVD from the 2003 boxed set? It's been a while since I've watched mine but I don't recall any discussions regarding the fly.Is that anything like Crunchy Frog?Montana Smith said:And don't forget the Chorley cake also has it's fly quotient!

They don't taste like chicken, and I've never seen one under the Whizzo Chocolate Company brand!

That's one thing Skull has going for it:they didn't put Harrison in a dress!

I always thought he actually swallowed the bug and just kept going... until I read this thread today. That's funny, I've shown it to friends and they were impressed. "Damn! Freeman can stay in character all right!"
I thought that maybe being the film buff Spielberg is, he was inspired by this scene from Leone's Once Upon a Time in the West

They put honey on Elam's lips to attract the fly. Thought they did the same in Raiders.
Now I find out it was just coincidence and editing fun.
Learn something new everyday. True.

Indeed, when vilains where better than the main protagonist
A great actor!I noticed the fly a long time ago. I remember being mentioned somewhere on the DVDs too. The only version I own is this one released in 2003

I'm not sure though, maybe I saw it somewhere on Youtube.

Paul Freeman is a fine actor but the fly did NOT go into his mouth. (Maybe you didn't read all of the posts, ZoRG?EvilEmperorZoRG said:Indeed, when vilains where better than the main protagonist
)Nice compliment to the subject and a great movie, to boot. Glad you finally saw this thread, Gonzo, because it's more than 6 years old!Dr. Gonzo said:

While this is a still image, this is the 2nd time during press that the Lord of the Flies has been surrounded by a pest. Both times he loses his cool and swats the offender away.
