The movie

I think that the movie begins with young Indy searching for the cross because it shows us that even early on in his life he had this urge for a quest, and what exacrly he'll do in his quest for something. He was so seriuos about that cross belonging in a museum that he was willing to risk his life in truck with a huge lion to get it. Once Indiana starts something he will keep going to until he attains it, whather it costs him his life or not. Young Indy is a born leader, and very resourceful. He also shows his courageousness going up against thosethugs to get the cross. He's also very stubborn. As he says later on, he had been searching for that cross "all his life." he doesn't seem capable of letting things go.

Day 3 Part 3 Small World

One of the craziest turns that the book took- Joy is alive. Not only that , but she has a little baby by Swallow. What should Swallow do? As in the romances, I'm not entirely sure that Swallow actually loves Joy, but loves the idea of her. His life revolves around these horrible conferences filled with people he doesn't actually like. Joy is like a breath of fresh air. With her, he can escape the montony of that life, and his marriage. He has sex with Hilary just to (excuse my language) get off. He doesn't actually enjoy it, there's no intimacy there. With Joy there is. She is the forbidden, and as in every story we have read the forbidden is near irrestible. That is most likely the reason for all infidelities that happen. But like most unfaithful people, Philip won't leave his wife. Not only did Hilary greet him as if she was truly happy to see him, he just completely loses his nerve. There is a part of him that realizes that Hilary doesn't deserve something like this. Who knows what will become of Joy now?
