harrison ford was once a nazi
written by geoffrey on 05/14/08

indiana jones kicks many a nazi ass, which is ironic, since harrison ford’s first part in feature films is as a nazi. check him out in the above clip, looking like a piece of nazi youth furniture in the great escape.

his first speaking role was in a film called dead heat on a merry-go-round (1966 - above), in which harrison plays a bellhop and is referred to as “boy.” if he called indiana jones “boy,” that’d equal a whip to the face, but these were humble beginnings for mr. ford. he was just “boy” back then, and was paid $125 for the role.
