I went ahead since I had some extra time and watching the bonus features on INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE.
Again, the bonuses are only fair. There is a panel discussion between the leading ladies of the three Indy features conducted at the AFI. Karen Allen is the most enthusiastic about her character. Capshaw and Alison Doody didn't much like the ladies they played. Capshaw realized she was more annoying than entertaining, and Doody kept saying that Sean Connery had the second lead which normally would have gone to the girl, so she felt her participation was reduced as a result. She kept saying over and over, "Connery had my role."
Oh, no. The whole point was a father and son story, working through their lack of communication and years of mistrust. She was a catalyst toward helping them achieve that, but she wasn't SUPPOSED to be the second lead.
