First love - or first infatuation - overwhelms Indy in Vienna, where he is smitten with the daughter of Archduke Francis Ferdinand. Needing emotional guidance, Indy consults Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung to discover what love is all about. In Florence, when Indy's mother is equally smitten with Giacomo Puccini, composer of Romantic operas La Boheme and Tosca, Indy must guide his parent safely back to her spouse.

My son was watching this on Amazon prime and I thought it looked wholesome and educational but then Indiana Jones' mom eventually gives in to the flirtations of another man while her husband is away. We had to shut it off because we don't want him thinking adultery is normal or a great "adventure"!. I thought about fast-forwarding through the bad parts, but it took up the entire plot line with young Indiana learning physics on the side, but all the physics lessons were full of innuendos showing scenes of his mom struggling with her feelings. It was like a soap opera! Thankfully it didn't show them in bed but it does show her lying about where she is going and secretly meeting up with this guy and them kissing. Totally unnecessary and ruined it for our family.

These are curious Young Indy episodes because two 45-minute TV shows from 1993 are spliced together here for a single, 90-minute adventure in love.Corey Carrier, about 12 during filming, is young Henry 'Indiana' Jones, Jr. He, his tutor, and his mom are traveling through Europe with the famous dad. This movie about love takes place in Vienna and in Florence.In Vienna young Indy gets exposed to the new theories of Freud and Jung over dinner, and he tries to discover what love really is. He has been smitten by the young princess of Austria, a girl his age that he met when both were at a riding school. This episode shows that Indy's characteristics we see manifest in the adult Indy, played by Harrison Ford, were already being honed. As an example, when he was denied the opportunity to tell the young Princess goodbye before they parted, young Indy sneaked into the royal compound, eluded guards, and went into a window to tell her goodbye. The second half bridges nicely onto this theme of love, as young Indy's mom in Florence meets Puccini while dad has to travel to another city for a few days. She is flattered by the attention, but when Puccini tells her he has fallen in love, he can't live without her, she must take the train at night and run away with him, she becomes very conflicted. But the tutor, and older and wiser woman, gets her to think about her husband and her son, and in the end she does the right thing. This is a very entertaining and watchable movie.

The third adventure in the Young Indiana Jones DVD series sees young Indy travel with his parents to Vienna, where he falls in love for the first time and then Florence where his mother is forced into a difficult decision....The first part of this segment is far more interesting than the first and Corey Carrier plays his teenage infatuation with the right level of naivete and it's well-played how he breaks into the castle of an Archduke to see his daughter, although the locket she gives him proves handy later. The Florence segment is not as successful, despite the best efforts of the actors and we get no real feel for the dilemma that Mrs Henry Jones is facing.Nevertheless, it's still a solid episode and worth watching.

Young Indy travels to Austria with his parents where he meets Princess Sophie at a riding stable and falls madly in love when they sneak off for the afternoon. But her parents are furious and forbid them to see each other again. After taking dodgy advice from none other than Sigmund Freud Indy runs off to proclaim his love before leaving forever.It's sweet but barely holds the attention past the love story. The second half of the movie is inexcusable though as the Jones' travel to Florence where opera composer Giacomo Puccini falls in love with Indy's mother while Henry Jones Sr. is out of town. The following story of 'will she or won't she cheat' is certainly NOT what I want to see while watching an Indiana Jones adventure. There are plenty of crappy soap operas for that kind of stuff. I can't believe that Mike Newell (Goblet of Fire, Donnie Brasco) directed this.Watch only if your are an Indy completest or a sado-masochist.
