    The Fugitive was on TBS and I watched it for the 200th time. Nobody talks enough about how every character is sporting incredible layered looks. Tommy Lee Jones is wearing vests and sweaters and sport coats in half the movie. He deserved the Oscar just for his outfit in the first scene

    In 1993, a local Chicago reporter covering the St. Patrick's Day parade spotted Tommy Lee Jones filming a movie amidst the festivities and stopped him for a quick interview. The movie was THE FUGITIVE 🔥

    I watched “The Fugitive” on a plane a couple of months ago and man, “a couple of goddamn movie stars, some great character actors, and some extremely dark and drab Illinois weather, but shot with actual lighting” is a recipe for success.

    i often think about an old friend whose favourite genre to watch was action, and whose favourite movie of all time was The Fugitive, but because they'd been raised by a family of snobby academics, they'd got it in their head that these movies were all "guilty pleasures"

    This is a fair assessment and question IMO that doesn't deserve the downvotes. I couldn't tell you what his international appeal might be, but to me he carries on a sort of Clint Eastwood-type lineage. The jaded, world-weary, cynical lead with anti-hero properties, one might say. Bonus pts for being a good-looking guy in his younger days with something of a riveting glare. **EDIT**: actually, I'm selling him short. His ability to go from weary / bored to intense & even ferocious surely…

    Writer/director David Twohy, along with Diesel, created the Riddick character. I’m a fan. He wrote THE FUGITIVE and WATERWORLD, and has been a solid genre craftsman for many years. Check out BELOW, a World War II horror film about a submarine crew tormented by unseen forces. It’s great.

    The bus/train crash in THE FUGITIVE (1993). When Harrison Ford appeared on The Tonight Show to promote the film, Leno asked him, "How did you guys do that effect?" Slightly bemused, Ford replied, "Well, we took a bus, and we hit it with a train."
