In 1981, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and Harrison Ford collaborated to make Raiders of the Lost Ark, the first in what would quickly become a trilogy of iconic Indiana Jones movies. (We won't mention the other two.)
Starring Ford and Karen Allen, the movie features some of cinema's most iconic scenes including the rolling ball heist, and the infamous "don't bring a sword to a gunfight" gag necessitated by the cast and crew's collective bout with dysentery.
Each major contributor has gone on to do countless other amazing projects, but in 1981, Raiders was and still is as cool as it gets.
Here are 25 photos from behind the scenes of Raiders of the Lost Ark.
