In the first decades of cinema, serial films such as The Perils Of Pauline (1914), Fantômas (1913-14), and Les Vampires (1915-16) kept audiences returning week after week, eager to see the resolution of the previous episode’s cliffhanger. Later, the form brought heroes such as Flash Gordon and Superman to the big screen for the first time. After serials fell out of favour, the idea of a continuous story with recurring characters was co-opted into the franchise format that currently holds sway. Now, the IFI resurrects the idea with weekly franchise screenings, beginning with the peerless Indiana Jones saga, directly inspired by those classic serials.
June 29 – Raiders Of The Lost Ark
July 6 – Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
July 13 – Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
July 20 – Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
July 27 – Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny
