Spielberg Mentions Indy V During Recorded Message To Harrison Ford

Steven Spielberg has teased us once more with a mention of Indiana Jones 5 in a recorded speech at the BAFTA Los Angeles awards. The award was being handed out to Harrison Ford for the Albert R Broccoli Britannia award for worldwide contribution to entertainment. Spielberg directly addressed the actor: “I can’t wait to work with you on Indiana Jones 5. This is not an announcement, just my fervent hope.”

In accepting the Bafta Los Angeles award from Abrams, who appeared in person to pay tribute to the film star, Ford didn't address Spielberg’s call to action. Instead, he kept it humble, by saying he didn’t prepare anything to say (“I could barely get dressed,” he joked), and thanking everyone – including Carrie Fisher and George Lucas – who took part in a touching filmed tribute that preceded his speech.

“I really wanted to be an actor because I could not imagine myself having a real job and I thought it would be nice to live the lives of many other people, to tell stories, to share emotion,” Ford said. “Film has given power, grace, imagination and wisdom to things I have had that opportunity to do. I am very grateful for the life I have had … I’m humbled.”

The awards took place Friday’s 2015 British Academy Britannia Awards in Beverly Hills

The Famous Indiana Jones Fly In Belloq's Mouth Scene. Did It Really Happen? I've always wondered if Paul Freeman unintentionally consumed a fly in this scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark ? It's the scene where Indiana Jones shouts down to Bellosh...I mean Belloq and threatens to blow up the ark. Did a fly go in his mouth? I remember watching this scene back in the early eighties and my ten year old mind thought he definitely had a snack while filming. I recall talking about 'flygate' in my school playground at the time and the general consensus with my friends was that Freeman definitely had a sneaky snack. Paul Freeman talks about the famous 'fly' scene in an interview with TheIndyExperience.com and settled 'flygate:' This is a bit of a dicey question so don’t get too upset. (Laughs) A movie’s always got bloopers in it, some have a lot, and some only have three or four. And the most remarkable blooper was right before the opening of th...
