·
In 1982, in
Ocean Springs, Mississippi, Chris Strompolos, eleven, asked Eric Zala, twelve,
a question: “Would you like to help me do a remake Raiders of the Lost Ark? I’m
playing Indiana Jones.” And they did it!
Every
shot, every line of dialogue, every stunt. They borrowed and col- lected
costumes, convinced neighborhood kids to wear grass skirts and play natives,
cast a fifteen-year-old as Indys love interest, rounded up seven thousand
snakes (sort of ), built the Ark, the Idol, the huge boulder, found a desert in
Mississippi, and melted the bad guys faces off.
