problematic movie, violence, cinematography
Listening to the soundtrack to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom; our society really has a visual language about weaponry that gets played with in this movie. The only big fight with melee weapons uses tulwars (long visual elements), the only time someone actually tries to knife someone, Chattar Lal swaps grip on a dagger (not a katar!) dramatically as a *framing* element, but even though nobody actually *uses* a katar in the movie, they're the closest read to "a batch of people point guns at the main character."
