Runaway Train

A mismatched pair of convicts-aging bank robber Manny (Jon Voight) and cocky young thug Buck (Eric Roberts)-made their way through the storm drain from their isolated Alaska prison, and onto a freight train to certain freedom. They didn’t have long to celebrate, as a fatal heart attack to the engineer trapped them, and lone railroad maintenance worker Sara (Rebecca de Mornay), on a rolling juggernaut to disaster. Andrei Konchalovsky’s edge-of-the-seat actioner, based on a screenplay by Akira Kurosawa, also stars Kenneth McMillan, T.K. Carter, Kyle T. Heffner. 111 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; audio commentary theatrical trailers.
