VHS - Harrison Ford & Sean Connery in "Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade"

Maybe the BEST of the "Indy" series - made that way with the addition of Sean Connery! Fast paced and funny.

The box sleeve is near-mint condition, showing only the faintest of shelf wear. Intact with no separations or markings.

Steven Spielberg's third action-packed entry in the Indiana Jones trilogy evokes the cliffhanger Saturday matinee serials of yesteryear. It's 1938 and Indy (Harrison Ford) receives word that his archaeologist dad, Professor Henry Jones (Sean Connery), has disappeared while on a quest for the Holy Grail. Indy embarks on a search for both his dad and the much-coveted artifact. THE LAST CRUSADE has a unique twist to the series' traditional opening-sequence cliffhanger. Actor River Phoenix plays an adolescent Indy who, while on a field trip with his Boy Scout troop, finds adventure on a circus train. Spielberg wanted to make the film about a father-and-son relationship, and Connery was his first choice to play Indy's dad. The selection was perfect, considering Spielberg and producer George Lucas first came up with the idea of the series as a rival to the James Bond movies in which Connery had starred. Before shooting THE LAST CRUSADE, Spielberg was planning on directing RAIN MAN with Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise but gave up the project to fulfill his contractual obligation with Lucas to make a third Indiana Jones movie.

"...In its own way THE LAST CRUSADE is nearly as good as RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, matching its audience's wildest hopes....Boisterous adventure..."
New York Times - Caryn James (05/24/1989)

"...Harrison Ford is still in top form..."
Los Angeles Times - Sheila Benson (05/24/1989)

"...The wildest and wittiest Indy of them all....Ford and Connery make a sensational team; their relationship charges the film..."
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (06/15/1989)
