Runaway Train (1985) Original Rolled Poster 27x41

Runaway Train is a 1985 action thriller about two escaped convicts who find themselves aboard a speeding, unmanned freight train hurtling through the icy Alaskan wilderness. Jon Voight stars as Manny, a hardened prisoner, and Eric Roberts plays Buck, a younger inmate who idolizes him. After breaking out of a maximum-security prison, they hop onto a train—unaware that the engineer has suffered a fatal heart attack and no one is at the controls. As authorities pursue them and the train barrels toward disaster, the two men face a brutal test of survival and morality. Directed by Andrei Konchalovsky and based on a story by Akira Kurosawa, the film earned critical acclaim and multiple Oscar nominations for its intense performances and existential themes.
