Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
Steven Spielberg's 1981 archeology adventure launcher. Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones.
Denholm Elliott won three consecutive BAFTA awards for Best Supporting Actor and was nominated for an Academy Award for A Room with a View.
He played Marcus Brody across two Indiana Jones films, and the character shifts from competent colleague to comic relief between them, which he handles without complaint.
Trading Places gives him a butler, and Defense of the Realm the dramatic work. He was a prisoner of war for three years after being shot down, and died of AIDS-related tuberculosis in 1992.
