...interview at their airy Santa Monica, Calif., office the day after a 15-hour stint on the set of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Kennedy, 54, and Marshall, 61, finish each other's sentences. You might expect as much from a couple married for 20 years and working side by side for 26. On a Kennedy/Marshall set, "it's like a family, and we're the parents, keeping the morale up, making sure everybody's happy," explains Marshall...

But he also doesn't see himself endorsing one of the other Republicans in the general election. "Those people who support me wouldn't believe it," he says. "If I said, 'Giuliani's a great guy, and he'll reduce subsidies and bring the troops home'? I couldn't do that." Even nerd revolutions don't surrender...
