      You know, if you want to see films set in India, there's two well known David Lean movies: A Passage to India, and The Bridge on the River Kwai.
      Also, George Orwell's writings were frequently set in British India since that was where he was born and raised. His novel, Burmese Days, was critical of Britain's colonial presence in South Asia. As were many of his short stories when he began writing.

    The banquet scene isnt meant to be "a typical meal in india"; it's supposed to show that something is _obviously_ fucked up in the palace, as indy's conversation very clearly hints at (aka the cult). And of course its a perfect excuse to fuck with willie's character.

      My idea is that the Indian government at the time didn't approve of the film being shot on the mainland due to its portrayal of the country and elements of the Hindu faith, such being how the goddess "Kali" is portrayed. I've heard that the actor who actually plays the head of the village was a Sri Lankan actor who didn't speak any English, and simply repeated what he heard Spielberg tell him to say with a headpiece in his ear.

    With regards to the banquet scene, the official Behind the Scenes book, there's actually a deleted scene from the script where Indy concludes the banquet was to try and scare them away. When asked why, Indy says " Those foods are forbidden for Hindu. Which makes you wonder what they are..."
    Probably something they should have kept in the movie tbh.

    I think you should really watch the 4th one.
    It's nowhere near as bad as you've been told (I actually like it more than Temple of Doom). People didn't like it at the time because it didn't feel like the OG trilogy, but it's still a competent and fun movie that continues Indy's story (and Marion returns, so that's great!).
    My ranking of the franchise:
    1. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
    2. Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the
    Lost Ark.
    3. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
    4. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
    The 5th Indiana Jones movie is being filmed right now, so it would be good to catch up on all the movies by the time the new one comes out (it probably comes out next year).

    Seeing as you are enjoying Indiana Jones so much (and who doesn't, let's be honest) may I humbly recommend The Mask of Zorro! It's a fantastic adventure film that I think you would really enjoy. And it has a way better leading lady than this film.
    Edit: Hugely unpopular opinion here but, I actually like the fourth one about as much as this one.
