Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Paul Valley on Harrison Ford in The Independent:

"On his politics he is more public. A lifelong Democrat, he publicly condemned the invasion of Iraq, calling for ‘regime change’ in the United States. He has also criticised his own industry for the violence of much of its output and has called for greater gun control in the United States. Last year he and Calista Flockhart joined other celebrities, including Kirk Douglas, to serve hot meals to the homeless on Thanksgiving at the Los Angeles Mission. He has recently narrated a film about the Dalai Lama ‘because I believe His Holiness is making a positive influence in our world.’

"But now it is back to the swashbuckling business of archaeology. (Indiana Jones films don’t dwell much on the painstaking business of brushing dust from sand-strewn ancient digs.) Ford has once again carried out most of his own stunts. Indeed, he claims to be as fit as he was two decades ago, revealing that, even 18 years on, ‘the leather jacket still fits.’"
