I can literally 'tune her out', particularly if there's something else going on that I want to listen to. Then she says something like 'Shall I go ahead and put that...

Which means I can't hear high frequencies very well. Some women's voices are just a blur to me (which I actually don't mind in most cases...

The jacket was made by Wested. Don't overstate the movie's impact - Ford was still second choice, and only then because he was doing carpenter work in the right place and at the right time... Hanover Street was not memorable. I would not even Red Box it for $0.99... JMO... This is not about the act...

The film was made in 1979 (before Raiders) :shock:

Does this mean that George Lucas saw this film and got the idea of what Indy would look like ?
This film was set in WWII, so the uniform is pretty close to Indy's!
