Many movies claim to be 'based on a true story', but how much truth actually makes it onto the silver screen?

Whilst one of us queries the less believable moments from the film, the other takes a deep dive into the fact behind the fiction to educate us and answer… is that really how it went down?

'Raiders of the Lost Ark' (1981)

When you weave a character indirectly inspired by real life explorers at the turn of the 20th century with mythical relics and the villainous fascism of pre-WWII Germany, you end up with possibly the greatest action-adventure film ever made. The gap between mystery and history is part of what makes this story so legendary, but what do we find in that gap? Is the Golden Idol a genuine artefact? Where is the Ark of the Covenant? And should we now assume Indiana Jones is part of the Star Wars canon?! Join us to find out on That's Not How It Went Down!
