Record number: 255 Title: Raiders Of The Lost Ark (1981) Medium: Movie Actress: Karen Allen Description: About halfway into the movie, Marion Ravenwood (Allen) is nabbed by the evil Nazis. Later hero Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) stumbles upon her in a Bedouin tent, cleave gagged with a sodden hankerchief, her wrists bound behind her back and around the center pole which supports the tent's roof. Indy ungags her and they have a tender reunion (he thought she was dead) but then rethinks the situation and decides to regag her much to her understandable (and vocal) dismay. Later, she is seen in the same predicament, briefly, as she tries to squirm away from one of the villians who unties her. In these scenes she's wearing slacks and a white and red patterned blouse. Towards the end of the film, Marion and Indy are tied to a stake back to back while the Nazis prepare to open the Ark. The ropes, curiously, tie their left wrists to the corresponding right one of their partner. When the spirits of the Ark are released, they destroy the Nazis and burn through the heroes bindings, leaving them unscathed. In the latter scene, Marion is wearing a white satin cocktail dress. |

Jupiter's Darling |
Day: Wednesday November 06 2002 |
Time: 9:30 a.m. Pacific |
Channel: TCM |
Airing today on Turner Classic Movies. |
Record number: 1769 Title: Jupiter's Darling (1955) Medium: Movie Actress: Esther Williams, Marge Champion Description: The plots of Esther Williams' movies defy description, but here goes: Hannibal captures the lovely Amytis (Williams) outside the gates of Rome and stops the battle to romance her, or something like that. First Hannibal (Howard Keel) captures the red-haired Amytis binding her wrists behind her back and silencing her with a two piece gag, and escapes from attacking Roman soldiers with the mewing Williams seated in the back of his chariot. Later Amytis and her blonde slave girl (Williams) are chained in a tent, the latter sitting disconcertedly on a pillar. In another scene, Amytis is dragged into Hannibal's tent with her arms bound behind her back in order to beg for her life. The script (fashioned by Dorothy Kingsley) includes these two priceless lines: "Chain me up again!" and "I'll deliver you to your lover and throw you at his feet, bound and gagged." |

Channel: IFC |
Wednesday night on IFC. |
Record number: 178 Title: Boxing Helena (1993) Medium: Movie Actress: Sherilyn Fenn Description: In a really disappointing scene she is tied to a wheelchair and gagged. We never see her actually tied to the chair but we assume it because her hands are behind her back. |
