Who Plays Mrs. Lowe On Blue Bloods & What Classic Movie Franchise Does She Star In?

Descriptions

Karen Allen's primary scene partner on her "Blue Bloods" episode is Tom Selleck. In addition to the press conference at the beginning of the episode, the two talk towards the end of "Unfinished Business" to discuss her daughter's case. It makes sense to give these two titans of the screen ample time together, but Allen and Selleck could've acted together a lot sooner had the latter managed to secure the part of Indiana Jones many years earlier. 

It's a well-worn bit of Hollywood trivia that Tom Selleck was cast as Indiana Jones initially, but his contract with "Magnum P.I." prevented him from taking the job. It's a role Selleck regrets turning down and getting him to act alongside Allen feels like the show gesturing at what could have been. 

There also seems to be another slight nod toward the "Indiana Jones" franchise on "Unfinished Business." The episode concludes with the Reagans about to embark on a camping trip, ready to embrace the wilderness. Frank comes down the staircase wearing a fedora awfully similar to Indiana Jones' iconic headwear. The choice of hat seems pretty specific, especially considering it comes within Karen Allen's episode. Amid the darkness "Blue Bloods" often travels in, it's nice to see the show throw in some fun references every now and then, too.
