Another in the Indiana Jones 'movie in 5 cards' series, this is the Temple in 5 cards Part One sketch card from "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom." It's from the opening scene with Indy and his soon-to-be love interest from the movie, Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw). Capshaw is more well known now as being Steven Spielberg's wife. She was somewhat of an unknown when she was cast in the lead, having only a few minor acting credits to her resume. It's easy to see why Spielberg fell in love with her- she's beautiful and smart.
In the scene, Indy is at a Shanghai Night Club (Club Obi Wan) meeting with Crime Boss Lao Che, exchanging the ashes of Emperor Nurhaci for a large diamond, the Peacock's Eye. Indy is poisoned by Lao Che, who then shows Indy the antidote- a vial with blue liquid. A struggle ensues, the diamond and the vial fall to the floor, and chaos follows. The antidote keeps slipping thru Indy's hands or gets kicked along the floor, all the while Lao Che's henchman are trying to finish off Indy with a machine gun.
Mike's sketch is when Indy and Willie were hiding behind a large gong using it as a shield from the gunfire. Anyone who has seen the film knows Mike captured Willie perfectly in this sketch- from the dress to the hair but especially her mouth (she was always whining loudly). Perfect card to start this series. I have been lucky enough to pick up one more card from this 'Temple in 5 cards' series, so keep checking back for that post. Until then, thanks for reading!
