I always think of this as a 'hidden' Akira Kurosawa classic. An excellent film, and one I've seen several times, but have yet to get a copy.Originally Posted by struth
Today its ---- Runaway Train.. 1985, starring Jon Voight, Eric Roberts, Rebecca De Mornay and John P. Ryan.
The story concerns two escaped convicts and a female railroad worker who are stuck on a runaway train as it barrels through snowy desolate Alaska. Voight and Roberts were both nominated for Academy Awards for their respective roles.
This is the bluray version..
been after this for a while.. violent but top action... highly rated by many including stunt men

Saw that recently - it was much better than expected.A bit more up to date now with Gore Verbinski's 2013 Western, The Lone Ranger starring Armie Hammer and Johnny Depp. Score by Hans Zimmer
Good combo humour from the 2 main stars. Action scenes are superb too.

Good film - but Ian Hislop's collected 'Wipers Times' is an even better read.Made in 2013, The Wipers Times.
This was a BBC drama TV film about the trenches newspaper at ypres Belgium during ww1.

Saw it at the cinema - for some reason I didn't enjoy it. But then it's a Coen Brothers film, which I always find to be quirky: I love some of their films, whereas others leave me cold. The two brothers alternate between directing and producing. I have yet to work out if the films I like have the brothers operating in consistent activities.One of my favs tonight that gets overlooked.
Billy Bob Thornton in The Man Who Wasn't There. 2001.
