Steven Spielberg

And one of the things he taught was the first 10 minutes of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

Specifically for the reasons you're mentioning.

Just the idea that the world is very clear and the dynamics between these characters are very clear.

The father-son dynamic specifically.

Was that the goal there, was to just lay out, here's everything you're going to get from this movie in the first 10 minutes?

Which, by the way, you do in other films.

I feel like your opening sequence often establishes so much of what will bring us along for that ride.

That was very personal.

That was maybe the most personal Indiana Jones film for me in terms of plot structure.

The most personal Indiana Jones film for me was Temple of Doom because I met Kate.

And that is Kate Capshaw, of course, the actress.

Yes.

I said to George I would direct the first three.

Without even knowing I was going to meet the love of my life on the second one.

But I feel that I've spent a lot of my life working out my relationship with my father.

Right.

And when he passed, he was 103.

And before he passed, we had 23 wonderful years together.

But there were years before that of kind of, I would call it a mild estrangement.

And I was always trying to work out where I was in that relationship with my dad.
