  Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) is back, and this time he is in India to retrieve a magical stone. The sequence of stunts that takes Indiana from a bar in Shanghai to an Indian village provides great movie fare. Happily, the rest of the film continues in the same excellent vein.

Found by a princess, he is raised in luxury, but his destiny is to lead his people out of Egypt to the promised land.

Poster Art From art.comThe Phantom of the Opera   1983     2 and a half stars    TV, 100 min.
Genre: Drama / Horror
Director: Robert Markowitz  
Cast: Maximilian Schell, Jane Seymour, Michael York, Jeremy Kemp, Diana Quick, Ferenc Beganyi, Pal Kovacs, Philip Stone, Paul Brooke, Andras Miko, Gellert Raksanyi, Laszlo Nemeth, Jeno Kis, Laszlo Soos, Denes Ujlaky

  This classic story is brought to TV with several deviations from the original story–a major one being that it is set in Budapest rather than Paris. After orchestra leader Sandor's (Maximilian Schell) singer wife (Jane Seymour) receives a bad review and commits suicide, Sandor gets into a fight with the critic (Philip Stone) and is burned with acid. Sandor takes refuge beneath the opera house, and five years later emerges as the masked Phantom. He falls in love with chorus girl Maria Gianelli (also played by Seymour) who greatly resembles his dead wife. Maria is in love with the director of the opera, Michael Hartnell (Michael York), but the Phantom tutors Maria and terrorizes the cast and all those who stand in the way of Maria's stardom. Good cast and scenery.
