My recent playthrough of the LucasArts adventure game adaptation has made me realise how much I love the film Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade.
I'd say it's a contender for my No. 1 favourite.

There's a girl in my daughter's class called Indiana. I would be lying if I said that every time she's mentioned in this house I didn't quote Sean Connery's penultimate line of that film.

I saw it in the cinema back when it was first released and I was quite blown away by almost everything about it.
