I found him to be very wise about Indiana: he added things to the character. Luckily, I had a very good relationship with stuntman Vic Armstrong - he is a really smart guy at devising how these things would and could be done. It was a spinal injury and that was difficult, obviously. Harrison Ford: My back was injured by riding elephants. "Faster and funnier" was all the direction we got. Harrison was constantly reminding me that I was a gal in a B-movie and that I didn't need to put notes in the margin. After the shoot, Steven screened all his movies for me.Ĭapshaw: We started in Sri Lanka, right in the middle of the movie, struggling to find who we were. I hadn't seen Raiders Of The Lost Ark and I didn't even know this was a sequel. I didn't know who Steven, George or Harrison were. I remember my mom dressing me in a three-piece suit.
The next day we got a call from Steven's office. My brother went to the open call for Short Round so I tagged along, and the casting director asked me to read for him.
#KATE CAPSHAW MOVIE#
Jonathan Ke Quan (Short Round): I had never been on a movie set. Seth: I had the terrible hots for Kate Capshaw! Spielberg: I went to see Harrison and said, "I have 19 girls on tape but I'm only going to show you one." I put Kate's tape in and he immediately said, "That's the one!" It's difficult to find audition scenes when there's so much action. For my screen test - with Steven, not Harrison - it was a scene between Willie and Indy where she's really hungry. We had children at risk - where's the fun in that? There were also 100 more screams than we needed.Ĭapshaw: I think George and Steven had been looking for "the girl" - by the way, even while we made the movie they always referred to her as "the girl" - and the casting director suggested me because I had just come out to Los Angeles and there is always heat surrounding the new girl. I didn't at that time.Ĭapshaw: I think we were constantly stretching and reaching to be as brilliant as the first one and we just didn't have the story.
#KATE CAPSHAW HOW TO#
If I were to play it now, I would really know how to play that. What Spielberg wanted was an Oxford-educated Indian smoothie who was a crook. Roshan Seth (Chattar Lal): I wasn't really able to deliver the role of Chattar Lal. ](/images/point.gif)
Before that, it was a bit of a struggle against common sense to go as dark as we did. I'm certainly there now in my filmmaking, as you've probably witnessed ever since Schindler's List. He certainly inspired Kershner to shoot a very dark second act in the first Star Wars trilogy and he wanted the second Indiana Jones to be very, very, dark. Steven Spielberg: I think Temple Of Doom was ahead of its time for my own sensibility and exactly right on schedule for George's. These were real sequels that actually had no connection to the one before. It's not like Star Wars, which is basically one story cut off into a number of little pieces. Obviously, in the sequels, we struggled to keep things going. George Lucas: You learn a million things on every movie. I said, "Thank goodness it's a three-pack, or we wouldn't have made the cut." I was laughing with someone when they re-issued it as a three-pack. Kate Capshaw (Willie Scott): Temple Of Doom is the forgotten Indiana Jones movie.
