Daily Dialogue — July 6, 2010

Indiana: Snakes. Why’d it have to be snakes?
Sallah: Asps… very dangerous. You go first.

 — Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford), Sallah (John Rhys-Davies), Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan, story by George Lucas and Philip Kaufman

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week is comic understatements as suggested by Mike, who also suggested Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Trivia: The name Marion Ravenwood was a combination of two names: Marion was the grandmother of Lawrence Kasdan’s wife, and Ravenwood was from Ravenwood Court, a small street off Beverly Glen.
