Gun vs Sword moment in Raiders of the Lost Ark
Again, let’s take at another of Raiders of the Lost Ark’s most popular scenes. While Indi is scrambling to escape, he encounters a sword-wielding maniac who displays some of the most awesome movements with his weapon of choice. Sadly for that man, Indy has a gun and proceeds to blast him in the chest before fleeing.
There was supposed to be a long fight between the two, but Harrison Ford was having trouble dealing with the 130-degree temperature in Tunisia. He convinced the director to reduce the length of the sword-and-gun fight to a single shot. That’s definitely a creative way to reduce the overall duration of the film, wouldn’t you say?
