After Steven Spielberg’s classic Raiders of the Lost Ark was released 35 years ago, three 11-year-old boys from Mississippi set out on what would become a seven-year-long labor of love and tribute to their favorite film: a faithful, shot-for-shot adaptation of the action adventure film. They finished every part of the movie ... except one; the film’s explosive airplane scene. Over two decades later, the trio reunited with the original cast members from their childhood in order to complete their masterpiece. The Adaptation Director Eric Zala is scheduled to be present for the August 20 screening. (2K DCP Presentation)
