@@IgnatzKolisch No but middle English did and the two are close enough to be able to understand each other. Now olde English, as in Anglo Saxon, gets really difficult.
I love how the knight was so quiet and chill - he just saw a dude age 100 years, turn into a skeleton and dissolve into dust - all in 10 seconds - and didn’t even flinch. Clearly they weren’t the first people to go in there and pick the wrong chalice and die
This is such a fantastic scene. The knight watches Indiana's facial expressions when the other two walk in. He realizes something is wrong. Even though they are centuries apart, he can tell those two are bad news. That's why he gave Indy hints at the correct cup. This scene shows that if you pay close enough attention, you can read people in any time period.
Excellent detail. Something I hadn't picked up, even after watching it countless times for decades. I just rewatched it and you're 100% right. He looks at Indy when talking about the puzzle and the mindset to solve it, but then looks at the Nazis when talking about the doom.
I always love that when Indy points out the real Grail, it pans over to it, but it's almost fades into the background because of the false grails in front of it.
It also helps that at first, the rack focus is on the bejeweled one, giving a general person the false impression of wait, that's not right, only for the focus to shift to the actual cup and were left humbled
"I was chosen because I was the bravest,the most worthy.thee Honor was mine,till another came to challenge me to single combat.i pass it to you.. who vanquished me." This part always gets me in the feels
He sounds very relieved about it as well. He had been guarding the grail for centuries, holding to his duty all that time, and now he could finally retire from it and receive his reward, to reunite with his brothers in the kingdom of god.
I was maybe 6 when this movie came out.This was the first movie I ever watched in theater. I vividly remember this scene because when the knight said "he chose.....poorly" the audience erupted in crazy laughter. What a classic line.

Well, most people don't consider to look at the entire view of an object (only the top, and sides, and whatever will not be touch a surface, particularly the wall and floor). Guess we should do that when shopping next time.
When I was in college, my friends and I would play a game we called “he chose… poorly.” We’d line up shot glasses with some filled with water and the rest with vodka. We’d take turns picking out shot glasses and if we chose the one with vodka, everyone would yell “he chose… poorly” but if we picked the water, we’d all yell “he chose… wisely”.

I must point out one thing. If she had given him the right cup, it would not have made him immortal. The knight said, "The grail cannot pass beyond the great seal. That is the boundary. And the price of immortality." So, you're immortal, but only while you're in the cave. Which means the Grail would not have done the Nazis any good even if they had managed to get it out of the cave. As proof, consider that his father had died in "Crystal Skull".
@@KeysofIDproductions That wouldn't have helped either as you have to keep drinking with that specific cup so you have to stay in the cave like the knight did .

@@basilkarlo1557Yeah, that film started off great especially with the intro segmnt but then it just felt more like National Treasure (not an insult) than Indiana Jones by the end. Indy hardly did anything cool... And that scene with the deadly gas room? So lame compared to the spike trap from Temple of Doom, not visually exciting or anything.
IMHO this is the best of the Indiana Jones series. It has so many memorable lines AND Faith is woven into it. I love how the Knight bids them farewell as they are leaving to return home.
It is not uncommon in medicine to leave a bullet in, if it is not in a critical spot. Removing it can cause more damage than leaving it and letting the wound heal over. Occasionally the body works it out on its own after a few years.
This whole sequence is like a showcase of what makes cinema such a powerful medium. The dialog, the old knight's relief at finally being relieved of his duty, and Donovan's greed and horror, all told in the fewest words possible. Then the visuals of the many false grails and the horrific price of the wrong choice. And finally in the scene where Indy's father is healed, the music... All playing into the intended effect of the scene.
Indy didn't want water or Holy Grail for himself He just wanted to safe father who was shot, out of love and selflessness That's why knight saw him as a worth of guard of cup
This was a great Movie! I loved watching it!! I loved the treasure hunt and the traveling to places and how one place leads to another in a race to get the grail !! Such a timeless Movie!! One of my favorite Movies for sure!!
All those years, he never realized that they told him he was the bravest and most worthy just so they wouldn't have to be the one to wait for hundreds of years in that cave.
Even though the grail couldn't leave the temple, The fact that the area could have been converted into a hospital and people the world over could have come there to be healed, maybe not immortal, but healed of their injuries and sickness, cancers and deformities. This I feel would have been a worthy legacy of the cup and Christ.
@@Rikrik1138 maybe the cave was a sort of tomb or THE TOMB (of the rich) back when Christ walk the land. And his blessing only confined to that general area because he is no longer on the earth to spread it out
@CapitalNick I know. I'm just saying. Let her leave with The Grail and then when she goes to use it for nefarious purposes(i.e. making Hitler immortal), she learns (and gets killed for it) that The Grail doesn't work and, too late, understands what the Knight meant when he said the price of immortality is that The Grail had to stay within the established limits and now, it is useless for all time
2:49.......these years later and I am still impressed by his body's ability to keep growing hair even as it disintegrates to dust! Excellent genes, simply flawless!
The Nazis didn't really understand much about Jesus unsurprisingly, considering he was a Jew. The leadership, generally, were atheists or ariosophists (basically racist astrology larping as paganism).
Fun fact: Harrison Ford worked as a carpenter before he became the famous actor he is today. That’s how he knew the Holy Grail was the “Cup of a Carpenter”.
After my disastrous first marriage member of my family (when talking about my horrible ex), would always say "she chose poorly". Of course that got it from this move but they were unfortunately right.
4:30 God the music is so heavenly precious and glorious, I come from a catholic family and I became a non-believer at the age of 13, but that music and this scene still gives me chills, thanks John Williams. God how I love the Indiana Jones movies, even if they're not from my time.
So, by this sequence, Indiana Jones should be granted extended life. He should be feasibly able to live until he's 100 or more due to drinking from the holy grail.
Cant imagine how indy goes on to become a miserable old man knowing he saw the arc of the covenant and drank from the cup of Christ. You would think he would be happy knowing their's an afterlife awaiting him. And this life is just a test.
The knight was humble enough to know that he was too old to fight and gave Indie his sword as a gesture of honor and respect, THEN the others came into the room and he realized that some shady stuff was up with them.
Donovan: "I'm no historian. I have no idea what it looks like, which one is it?" Elsa: "let me choose" (Selects that giant silver serving plate on the wall)
He picked the wrong chalice. For some reason the producer assumes that as Jesus was a carpenter, He made his own Chalice. But if you read the Bible, you will find that He had been given or hired out a room, the upstairs room for Passover, as such the chalice was provided by the inn owner. To add to that As Jesus is King the inn owner could well have provided the best chalice that he had available, just as Jesus had been anointed with expensive oil.
The outside of the chalice was clay. The inside of the chalice was gold. Therefore, Jesus didn't make it, since he could not have afforded gold when he was a carpenter.
@@travismiller5548 There are no fairies in the Bible, and I doubt they would have tales anyway. Reproducing historical fact incorrectly, and then attempting to correct it isn't "trying to make it make sense".
@@travismiller5548 You're actually correct because while there was a cup that caught Jesus' blood in the New Testament of the bible, the whole Holy Grail thing is Arthurian tales, when King Arthur is ill and the three knights of the Round Table go out to find the Grail and it's Sir Galahad that find it. That part I'm pretty sure is not in the Bible.
I don't think so. Otherwise how would Joseph have it to catch Jesus blood...they wouldn't steal it from the inn? And since when do you use gold cups in a room...not even the Pilate was using a gold cup I bet.
Indiana could have chosen any of the cups. It was his attitude and reason for choosing that made the difference. All he wanted was to heal his father, not rule the world.
He’s known for his search for fortune and glory, but this time it was more about rekindling his relationship with his father and having enough faith in God to complete the quest.
@@khabbad Humbly noted. I assumed Crusade area English would have some common words shared with todays English. Or maybe French would have been more realistic?
@@BABBASTICKY yea maybe. I remember reading years ago about how different “old English” was basically unrecognizable….night of been cooler if the Knight spoke Latin. Either way I love this film, they don’t make adventures like this anymore
She did, obviously... she told Indy that it would not be made out of gold. I mean it makes sense Jesus was a Carpenter I don't think he would be using a gold cup at the last supper.
@@2a4me96 Yup. And it's not like she's loyal to him, a rich guy who cares nothing about archaeology itself, just wants to exploit it, just like the rich guy exploiting the Nazis. While Indy is there purely to save his father. Ironic, since he's the archaeologist.
They didn't speak modern English back in the crusader period. A well educated English knight templar would speak Latin and certain varieties of French and probably middle English. Of course, many were uneducated too. Indiana should know some Latin at least.
I always thought Indy should have been an immortal paladin at this point, waiting for the end of time and guarding the covenant. I really wanted Nazi zombies, too. Since the knight aged they could have used an older Harrison Ford and gave him a truly heroic ending where he passes the Ark on to the next chosen people. I know people aren't religious like they were but ancient science and ET doesn't really cut it for an Indiana Jones movie. Might as well embrace the theme.
@esportsacademy8749That would have been cool as well, I thought after watching the 3rd film he'd do a dig for it. I really wanted Sean Connery for another film but they waited too long.
What’s really interesting is Sean Connery came back as a king searching for the grail in Robin Hood, prince of thieves. Saw the movie at the theater and the audience erupted in the cheers seeing him.
Interesting to note that the word Carpenter is different in Hebrew. The Greek translation means woodworker (or something like that) but Hebrew means architect, which in the context considering most of the buildings are made of clay and stone at the time makes a bit of sense of the Grail's clay-like appearance.
@@ignaciogodoy7095 it’s not a question of trust, he would make Indy pick a cup and drink the water first to see if it worked. If it didn’t Indy would die and Donovan would have another chance to pick the right cup.
If they remained within boundary as the knight mentioned was the price of immortality. Otherwise, nope, back to being regular mortals once you leave. Oh and the grail cannot pass the boundary well.
Not true. Indiana and his father both were and would of been completely healed of all injuries. That did not reverse itself after leaving. They are immortal. The price is the grail can't pass beyond. Not themselves.

100 years? More like a thousand years.
More like he had unbelievable faith in God, knowing that a power that kept him alive for that long would certainly also provide certain death
My man clearly knew what was going to happen. He also knew Indy was a good man and, judging by Indy's reaction to Donovan, that Donovan was evil.
I would say the reaction would be more a case of "Bugger! Where did I leave the broom and dust pan!"

He's a veteran of the Crusades. He's definitely seen horrific shit.

I love the ghostly and almost divine cast of light on the aged knight. Great imagery.
We can mourn that cinematic masterpieces such as these will never come again, or we can celebrate that they came at all.
Why not both?
@@tranz2deep Because it feels hopeless to think we won't get classics like this anymore, what is there to look forward to? Avengers 15?

4:30 God the music is so heavenly precious and glorious, I come from a catholic family and I became a non-believer at the age of 13, but that music and this scene still gives me chills, thanks John Williams. God how I love the Indiana Jones movies, even if they're not from my time.
So, by this sequence, Indiana Jones should be granted extended life. He should be feasibly able to live until he's 100 or more due to drinking from the holy grail.
Maybe the effects wane beyond the cave...
@@majas4922 the other knight lived almost 200 years
@@22espec If you believe the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles to be canon Jones is 110 and still kicking.
imagine the knight with a broom and dustpan after all those people who died, humming to his favorite toon 😅
Cant imagine how indy goes on to become a miserable old man knowing he saw the arc of the covenant and drank from the cup of Christ. You would think he would be happy knowing their's an afterlife awaiting him. And this life is just a test.
Yeah but Woke Disney despises all good things so...all the good stuff is just "cancelled". Including their profits.
Life can beat you down. Remember he lost his one and only son.
@@StopNuclearBallisticMissle and drank from a fake grail ultimately if he aged after all
Because his son was killed in Vietnam.
"Where did dad go? Heaven?"
"No... to the space between spaces."
The knight was humble enough to know that he was too old to fight and gave Indie his sword as a gesture of honor and respect, THEN the others came into the room and he realized that some shady stuff was up with them.

Donovan: "I'm no historian. I have no idea what it looks like, which one is it?"
Elsa: "let me choose" (Selects that giant silver serving plate on the wall)
He picked the wrong chalice.
For some reason the producer assumes that as Jesus was a carpenter, He made his own Chalice. But if you read the Bible, you will find that He had been given or hired out a room, the upstairs room for Passover, as such the chalice was provided by the inn owner. To add to that As Jesus is King the inn owner could well have provided the best chalice that he had available, just as Jesus had been anointed with expensive oil.
The outside of the chalice was clay. The inside of the chalice was gold. Therefore, Jesus didn't make it, since he could not have afforded gold when he was a carpenter.
It's all fairy tales anyway, quit trying to make it make sense.
@@travismiller5548
There are no fairies in the Bible, and I doubt they would have tales anyway.
Reproducing historical fact incorrectly, and then attempting to correct it isn't "trying to make it make sense".
@@travismiller5548 You're actually correct because while there was a cup that caught Jesus' blood in the New Testament of the bible, the whole Holy Grail thing is Arthurian tales, when King Arthur is ill and the three knights of the Round Table go out to find the Grail and it's Sir Galahad that find it. That part I'm pretty sure is not in the Bible.
I don't think so. Otherwise how would Joseph have it to catch Jesus blood...they wouldn't steal it from the inn? And since when do you use gold cups in a room...not even the Pilate was using a gold cup I bet.
Another great video. Like the look of the bridge. Thanks for sharing. And Merry Christmas!
I love how Donovan holds Elsa at arm's length before he dies, he's like, "Look what you've done to me!"
2:34 diddy entered the room😂😂😂
Indiana could have chosen any of the cups. It was his attitude and reason for choosing that made the difference. All he wanted was to heal his father, not rule the world.
He’s known for his search for fortune and glory, but this time it was more about rekindling his relationship with his father and having enough faith in God to complete the quest.
‘I was chosen…. Because I was the most annoying and the others hated me’
1:45 I think she knew she tricked him and made Indiana know, like the plan was to get rid of him.
She knew. She said, that the cup would not be made out of gold, before Indy mentions Jesus' trait.
It's terrifying when you really think about it, every other cup in that room has the power to kill you within seconds of drinking from them.
Always wondered how the Knight could speak and understand them but still great
Because the all speak English maybe…?
@@BABBASTICKY Back then the knight would not speak English in the way we know it, it would be almost entirely foreign for any English speaker
@@khabbad Humbly noted. I assumed Crusade area English would have some common words shared with todays English. Or maybe French would have been more realistic?
@@BABBASTICKY yea maybe. I remember reading years ago about how different “old English” was basically unrecognizable….night of been cooler if the Knight spoke Latin. Either way I love this film, they don’t make adventures like this anymore
If the night spoke Latin it's a safe bet he and Indy would have been able to converse.
Why would a Carpenter make a cup from Metal? A Carpenter Uses Wood!!😤
LOL well Donovan isn't a historian
Who else here thinks she purposely chose the wrong chalice? 😅
OK, if you are so smart and know what the grail looks like, YOU drink from it first.
I think she did also
Yeah she totally chose the wrong one for him on purpose. She smirked victoriously when he drank from it. She wanted it for herself.
She did, obviously... she told Indy that it would not be made out of gold. I mean it makes sense Jesus was a Carpenter I don't think he would be using a gold cup at the last supper.
@@2a4me96 Yup. And it's not like she's loyal to him, a rich guy who cares nothing about archaeology itself, just wants to exploit it, just like the rich guy exploiting the Nazis. While Indy is there purely to save his father. Ironic, since he's the archaeologist.
Choose the wrong item makes you transforms into doc brown
They didn't speak modern English back in the crusader period.
A well educated English knight templar would speak Latin and certain varieties of French and probably middle English.
Of course, many were uneducated too.
Indiana should know some Latin at least.
Knight: "He chose.......poorly."
You think?
The final Indiana Jones movie.
NO!
Why not have her drink after choosing it😂😂😂😂
Blinded by greed, I suppose.
One minute he was Julian Glover, the next, Christopher Lloyd…
I always thought Indy should have been an immortal paladin at this point, waiting for the end of time and guarding the covenant. I really wanted Nazi zombies, too. Since the knight aged they could have used an older Harrison Ford and gave him a truly heroic ending where he passes the Ark on to the next chosen people. I know people aren't religious like they were but ancient science and ET doesn't really cut it for an Indiana Jones movie. Might as well embrace the theme.
Some people in the USA are still religious. Unfortunately, they aren't Hollywood's target audience anymore.
@esportsacademy8749That would have been cool as well, I thought after watching the 3rd film he'd do a dig for it. I really wanted Sean Connery for another film but they waited too long.
A nice callback when Donovan warned Jones never to trust anyone
Breaks the heart watching this after what Disney and KK has done to the franchise.
Disney's *en$h!ttificaton"
What’s really interesting is Sean Connery came back as a king searching for the grail in Robin Hood, prince of thieves. Saw the movie at the theater and the audience erupted in the cheers seeing him.
🤣This scene is so over-the-top I can't resist re-watching.
Ok…
The grail and its immortality only work if you stay guarfing it so Indiana had to choose..stay there or more adventures. He chose adventures..
"It wouldn't be made of gold."
"That's the cup of a carpenter."
Yea, so it's a clay/wood cup, but the inside of the basin is made of/painted gold?
The finish, probably by varnish or gold coating
Gracias por compartir hermosa fascinante película una obra de arte 💯💚🌹💜🎊👍🌈🌈🌈
Interesting to note that the word Carpenter is different in Hebrew. The Greek translation means woodworker (or something like that) but Hebrew means architect, which in the context considering most of the buildings are made of clay and stone at the time makes a bit of sense of the Grail's clay-like appearance.
I’ve seen material on the Internet that suggests Jesus was likely a stonemason, based on the region where he lived.
Great scene, they all knew except the guy with the gun…
It’s always surprised me that Donovan didn’t make Indy choose for him
He didn’t trust him
@@ignaciogodoy7095 it’s not a question of trust, he would make Indy pick a cup and drink the water first to see if it worked. If it didn’t Indy would die and Donovan would have another chance to pick the right cup.
@@jonathanward7320 that's a good point. Dumb villains gonna be dumb though.

Indy drinks from the Holy Grail in this film, survives a nuclear explosion inside a fridge in the next.
The knight is so sweet and sad😢
It's Sir Galahad, the bravest and most moral of all knights of the Round Table.
@@RorschachqpI didn’t know that, thanks for the info 👍
I always thought this was a clever test.
So now Indie and his Dad are immortal? How did I miss that ?
If they remained within boundary as the knight mentioned was the price of immortality. Otherwise, nope, back to being regular mortals once you leave. Oh and the grail cannot pass the boundary well.
Not true. Indiana and his father both were and would of been completely healed of all injuries. That did not reverse itself after leaving. They are immortal. The price is the grail can't pass beyond. Not themselves.
@@JJCBC7269maybe they have to keep drinking from it to remain immortal.
@@towdr1 you make a point I never considered. Maybe they were bound to the great seal. The knight's warning is left for interpretation.
